Description
This is a fantastic, highly collectible assortment of vintage and antique lighting, featuring a rare, pre-WWII German-made Nier Feuerhand Nr. 270 hurricane lantern complete with its original wick assembly and a beautiful, deep ruby-red glass globe. Highly sought after by lantern enthusiasts, this particular model was produced primarily in the 1930s and features the classic hot-blast design. It is accompanied by a beautifully detailed, Victorian-style cast metal desk lamp base depicting a hand clutching a torch, a clear glass finger oil lamp with a spiral-ribbed body, a larger clear glass stand-alone oil lamp base, a charming rustic “forest scene” motion-style novelty cylinder light complete with its internal bulb assembly, and a vintage brass-finished wall-mounted sconce bracket. All items show an authentic, aged patina: the Feuerhand Nr. 270 lantern remains complete with its burner mechanism, wick, and wick raiser, showing only light surface rust, minor paint loss, and dust consistent with its age, while the glass components are free of major cracks but could use a gentle cleaning, and the vintage electrical cords are weathered and should be inspected prior to use Feuerhand Nr. 270 Lantern: H 12″, W 7″, D 7″; Large Clear Oil Lamp Base: H 10″, W 5″, D 5″; Small Clear Oil Lamp: H 8.5″, W 2.5″, D 2.5″; Hand-Torch Desk Lamp: H 10″, W 5.5″, D 8″; Forest Scene Cylinder Light: H 7.5″, W 4.5″, D 4.5″; Wall Sconce Bracket: H 6″, W 4″, D 5″. Please see photos for condition.
