Clear Pedestal Style Oil Lamp with Plain Flare Top Large Bulged Chimney

I unboxed it today, extremely well packaged, it came with a small length of wick and also a longer one. It's a fairly heavy lamp, very classic design. I am gonna add another one soon, Functional and beautiful, I bought the Paraffin Lamp Oil - Blue Smokeless, Odorless, Clean Burning Fuel for Indoor and Outdoor Use with E-Z Fill Cap and Pouring Spout - 32oz - by Ner Mitzvah when I bought the lamp, purple just because my wife's favorite color, the lamp actually didn't hold the entire amount but probably less than a quarter ounce was left, Its jus a beautiful and well built lamp.

Beautiful, but is kind of expensive, at least to me it is. I have another one almost identical to this one that is an antique I received from my Grandpa after he passed away over 40 years ago, but that one is a gorgeous blue in color. I was so happy to see this one which is almost identical. My antique one is a bit larger. But I’m am very happy to own this clear one. Thank you!

I purchased two of these to replace older ones I lost when I moved several years ago. I was somewhat reluctant to spend $50 per lamp, given other lamps on Amazon were running $20-30, but in the end I am glad I did. These are molded from a solid piece of glass, not two pieces joined together with a flimsy brass fitting. The lamps are heavy... nice thick glass... reminds me of the lamps my parents had 40 years ago when we would have power failures. The collar and queen anne-style burner have somewhat of a cheap pressed-metal feel to them, not at all brass like older lamps would have. This would be my only concern in terms of long-term durability. I have not had an opportunity to use them to any great extent, just "test burns" after everything was assembled and filled with lamp oil, so time will tell in regards to that issue. Worst case I can pick up brass replacement. I expect these lamps to outlive me. Overall, I give 5 stars and recommend you purchase, even though these are more expensive than other, similar items.

well made, thick glass arrived shrink wrapped and packed well

When assembling the new lamp, when you are screwing the metal piece in place, (the gold colored metal piece holds the wick) which secures the bowl to the globe, you must screw it in, IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION YOU ARE USED TO SCREWING THINGS ON. If you are trying to attach and tighten it by screwing it on the wrong way, it will not attach and you will think the threads are faulty. I started to return it because of this, as I had seen a review where someone had complained that they couldn't seat the metal piece either, it would not attach. They spent a whole hour trying to get it to fit, but they were screwing it the wrong way! They needlessly returned it. The company includes a very small piece of paper with tiny print that alerts you to this, but it is easy to overlook. So when screwing the gold metal piece on, when you are ATTACHING it, TURN IT COUNTER CLOCKWISE. When you are DETACHING the gold piece as in when you need to fill the glass bowl with fuel, TURN IT CLOCKWISE. This is opposite from how it is normally done. Make sure you get a good, tight fit, for safety purposes. I was glad I figured it out, as it is a very handsome lamp. Enjoy the Light!

It’s a solid glass oil lamp. The glass pedestal is thick glass and overall the lamp is a good size. It also holds 32oz of oil, so it will last for a while. Another plus is that it came with of 7 wicks.

I ordered this as a gift and unpacked it to be sure it wasn't broken. Discovered it was missing the part that screws into the base that feeds the wick. Sent it back and received a replacement. Upon unpacking the replacement lamp I discovered the part missing in the first one was wrapped separately, not very obvious and easy to miss. It probably was in the first box but I never noticed it. So look closely in the box if you order this lamp. This is the most beautiful oil lamp I have ever purchased!

The burner would not screw on to the lamp.

Very happy with my lamp I am enjoying every night.

The metal burner is very cheap, does not screw to the base like it’s suppose to but freely sits on the base and wobbles, especially when the lamp globe is in place. Very disappointing, cheap, dangerous product.
