Victorian Style Cast Iron Wall Mounted Swing Arm Oil Lamp with Glass Font - A Victorian style wall-mounted swing-arm oil lamp. The assembly consists of an ornate, scrolling cast iron bracket with a black finish, designed to swing horizontally when mounted. The clear glass font is held within a cast iron ring attachment. The burner is a brass-toned metal assembly featuring a thumbwheel for wick adjustment. This is a manual-fill, non-electric kerosene lamp. A wick is present within the burner. The lamp is designed to hold a glass chimney, which is not included. Indistinct raised characters are present on the burner thumbwheel and the wall-mount section of the bracket, but they are too worn to provide a definitive maker attribution.
