Antique Miners Railroad Oil Lamp Primitive Christmas Tree Lit Holiday Gathering

Looking for something different this holiday season that will add flavor and charm to your homestead? Well, look no further as this next exciting offering may indeed "fit the bill"! I paired up an old oil lamp with a decorated Christmas tree that promises to light up your home bringing warmth and plenty of holiday cheer with it! This antique oil lamp sporting a black painted finish has a simple style referred to as a teapot shape. The handle opening at the top still retains its wick and lends another authentic element from long ago. This could have been used as a railroad lamp or also as a hand held miner's torch. There are a couple of dents in the tin, one in the front and another in the back as referenced in images 1, 8 & 9. There are no rusted out areas or holes to report. Even though this oil lamp is missing the original cap, I had other intentions in mind when I purchased it that involved using this piece as a base for a fine holiday tree. A history evoked, wonderful example
