Circa 1880's kerosene oil Plume & Atwood Harvard student lamp. This particular model is probably the most popular Harvard ever produced; it is by far the rarest form and most ornate. It includes all of the Harvard student lamps' signature and fanciful mythological creatures, every inch of the lamp is covered with intricate and detailed castings. The addition of the elaborate cast "necklace" or "yoke" handle and tall ornate cast base make this model the most elaborate and desirable of all the Harvards. Though at one time this lamp was electrified, someone de-electrify this lamp to its original pre-electric state which explains the profess plugged up cord holes. Fitted with a terrific period pair of 1870-80's reticulated and hobnail milk glass shades of 8 inch diameter as well as the pair of smokey yellow chimneys. This rare and unique piece of vintage American lighting would make a super addition to any fine collection or household. Condition Report: The electric was remove, however we are not sure if it is fitted to actually burn kerosene, we have been told that the glass chiminies are probably not original, overall this is a fine example in good condition. Size: 19.5 inches x 21.5 inches x 8 inch (shade diameter)
