Description: FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION: VERY LARGE, ELEGANT & IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN THIS CONDITION, ALL ORIGINAL AMERICAN MADE DURING 1875 - 1885 KEROSENE LAMP BY ATTERBURY & CO. PITTSBURGH. THIS GREAT LAMP IS IN A REALLY GOOD CONDITION, WITH NO MAJOR CHIPS, CRACKS OR REPAIRS, ONLY SOME USUAL BUBBLING, IMPERFECTIONS IN THE GLASS AND SMALL CHIPS TO THE INSIDE OF THE BASE AND THE BOTTOM, NOT VISIBLE WHEN ALL PARTS ARE ASSEMBLED AND THE LAMP STANDS. STILL FIRES GREAT WITH KEROSENE AS PICTURED ON THE IMAGES. THIS PARTICULAR "MADONNA" PATTERN IS EXTREMELY RARE, THE WHITE GLASS BODY SCREWS IN TO THE BLACK GLASS BASE. THE DETAIL OF THE HAIR IS SUPER SHARP AND CRISP. DURING MANY YEARS OF COLLECTING, SELLING AND APPRAISING ANTIQUE LIGHTING THIS IS THE FIRST AND ONLY ONE EXAMPLE OF THIS PATTERN IN SUCH COMPLETE ORIGINAL CONDITION, THAT I HAVE A FORTUNE TO DISCOVER AND ACQUIRE. IT IS SAFE TO SAY, THAT THIS ONE OF A KIND TREASURE CAN ONLY BE FOUND IN MUSEUMS NOW. THE MEASUREMENTS ARE: 21" TO THE TOP OF THE CHIMNEY, 17 3/4" TO THE TOP OF THE 7 3/8" DIAMETER SHADE, WITH THE BLACK GLASS BASE 6" AT THE WIDEST.
