    Hello and thankyou for the quick welcome. Am just fishing to find out about a few items I have stumbled upon and if anyone could give me any clues about. 20190805_164109.jpg 20190805_161951.jpg I think the coke evaporated. I think the lamp is copper with a removable thick glass insert. Thanx for looking.

    Maybe @sabre123 or @verybrad will know about your lantern.
    In the future, it’s best to post to the correct Forum. :)

    I have no idea what that square thing about smoking is? Nor do I recognize the coin. Could you please just tell me how tall it is in inches? If under 3" it is probably just a souvenir from Coca-Cola company.

    If no identifying numbers or letters, I think just a souvenir bottle, maybe not even made in the United States.

    The top one reminds me of the light fixtures they sell for gazebos missing the bottom part. You put an electric candle in it. Does it have a ring on top?

    How can it be 6 inches, a cig pack is only 2.5 inch and a Twenty Pence coin appears larger than the cap.
    This is a novelty miniature bottle.

    Light fixture is early 20th century and likely English in origin. Art nouveau in style, though some might consider this to be Arts and Crafts period.

    Agree with verybrad. That swag drapery motif was popular. I'll add that it is more than likely brass or wrought steel with a Japanned finish. Flashes of copper (or brass) over a black field.
    Is there a light socket in it?

    Lol, I thought that was a video cassette film on the dangers of smoking. It’s important to understand this is an international Forum, and we don’t always understand certain references. I’ve Never seen a pack of Butts like that. :hilarious:

    Oh well.. :blackalien:

    It has a hook at the top to hang onto a chain. It's been around since the early 70,s was a gift from a church minister to my mother.
