[QUOTE="Wendlekins, post: 11457270, member: 17018"]I bought this old gas lamp about 20 years ago and have always puzzled who designed it. It has a beautiful arts and crafts copper design with stylised swans attaching it to the magazine holder base . The glass panels are beautiful etched and remind me of the Glasgow School of art designs. There is a Canadian Patent number on the panels No 25591 which was for a Francis Wenham Gas lamp dating to 1886. The lamp was converted later to have electricity. It’s my favourite thing in the house ( don’t tell my husband I said that ) !! I didn’t know which forum to put this in as it is metalwork , glass and furniture. Hoping someone can tell me more about it Thank you [ATTACH=full]544062[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]544063[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]544064[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]544065[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]544067[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]544068[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]544069[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full][/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
