Antique Questions Forum / Re: Help in identification.....brass lamp??

Thanks for all the responses  ;D

I've done some more research, as I wasn't content with it being an insence burner or lamp for mosquito repelent  ;)

For anyone who is interested, I've since found out that it is a brass grease/fat lamp!

Thanks again for your help!

Thanks for the info.....I just wasn't sure what it was!

Not sure about the tea candle part......can't get one to fit in the centre at all, the openings are too small.

It's definately had a liquid in it at some stage as the dust has stuck to and is really thick on those parts.

Hi All, Just a new member. ;D

Recently I've just inherited a few items, and need help in identifying this one.

I think it is a brass multi-wick open flame oil lamp....but not sure. Maybe whale oil lamp?? I'm not sure how it works....or even if it does or would.

There are no dates or stamps etc. on the item to help me identify the age.

The hanging part at the bottom is an odd shape, so not sure what that part is for.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
