This is for an old "converted to electric" hanging oil lamp in good condition with no major damage but with 3 issues that need mentioned. First, there is an area of corrosion on the 14" shade ring, photo 9. Second, there are a couple of drops of white paint 3" to the right of the corrosion on the shade ring, photo 10. And third, there are cracks in the brass surrounding the light bulb socket, photo 13 shows the worst one. The 6 1/2" ceiling plate, the next lower 6" spreader ring and the shade ring all match with a Fleur De Lis style pattern. The oil font has an open shell style pattern. The smoke bell and shade crown do not match either, they may have been replaced. The lamp has 30 larger crystals for the shade ring and 12 smaller crystals for the spreader ring. I will include a couple of extras each in case of breakage. The lamp will hang down about 31" to 32". This lamp has been converted to electric and still has the old cloth covered wires intact. I am not sure that they work but they still look OK. I currently have 2 shades listed that will fit into this lamp, photo 15 shows the ruby red hobnail in this frame.
