ancient Lamps

ancient Lamps


Antique Lamps have come to be very collectible over the past few years. Certain styles such as Art Deco and Victoriana have assisted this popularity along with Certain makers such as Tiffany that will never go out of fashion.

Some of the most collectible lamps are oil and kerosene lamps. They can still look as gorgeous and stylish today as they did 100 years ago when they were first manufactured. There is something romantic about these lamps when they are lit and show off their glow to perfection in even the most uninspiring rooms.

Be very just when purchasing lamps with glass shades. This is the place where most of the damage is done. Petite burn marks are normal and should be standard with any lamp with an age. Run your fingers colse to the rim of the shade very thought about and check for hairline cracks.

Be also very just when purchasing supposed old Lamps due to the whole of reproductions on the market. Where a Certain area is very favorite as it is with old Lamps then it is just a matter of time before the market is flooded with gravidity pieces.

This does not mean that gravidity old lamps are a bad thing. If you do have an customary piece which has a slightly damaged shade it would be easy to replace this with a gravidity if it was for your own use and not for resale.

The only problems come when the gravidity lamps are passed on as originals either by unsuspecting sellers or by unscrupulous dealers. Check the lamps like you would any other antique. Look for normal wear and tear on the shade. Brass fittings would be worn away due to frequent use along with the base. Owners would often polish the lamps so this would also show on a genuine old lamp. If you intuit anyone regarding the lamps true age then don't buy it.
