A Pair of Victorian Jelly Moulds

During the late 19th and early 20th century houses were lit with candles or oil lamps. The lamps would come in all grades from a cheap utility metal lamp, to elaborate silver or gilt lamp with ornate cut and painted globular shades.

This Victorian brass oil lamp has an ornate brass stand on a black pottery base with a clear glass resevoir for the lamp oil. Finished with a partly frosted glass shade with a lovely foliate design.

This particular lamp would have been in a relatively wealthy household.

In good condition.
