Vintage Amber Pressed‑Glass Oil Lamp, Early American Style, 18¼" Tall
Product Details
A vintage amber pressed‑glass oil lamp in the Early American “Homesteader” style, produced during the 1970s–1980s revival of Victorian household lighting. The lamp features a textured hammered‑glass font, a decorative pressed‑glass base with branching, nature‑ motifs, and a clear glass chimney. This color, often marketed as Sunset Gold, was a popular tone in mid‑century and late‑century home décor. The burner assembly includes an Eagle‑marked burner collar paired with a P&A (Plume & Atwood) wick knob, both respected American manufacturers whose components were widely used in U.S.-assembled lamps of this era. The combination is period correct and typical of lamps sold through department stores and hardware retailers under generic style names such as “Early American.” • Height with chimney: 18¼ inches • Base diameter: 6¼ inches The amber glass is clear and free of chips or cracks, with crisp pressed detail throughout the base and font. The burner assembly is intact, the wick knob turns smoothly, and the clear chimney is in excellent condition.
