    About 2 feet tall with 1.5 ft wide lamp shade. Metal decorative base with oil lamp. Connected to glass cylinder with Roman numerals up to XII. Metal eagle on top of that. Metal lamp shade. Picked up at a thrift shop. Unknown metal, and unknown to what kind of lamp this actually is. I haven't found anything like it anywhere on internet.

    Has an underwriters Laboratories Inc sticker.
    Listed portable lamp
    Issue number 47,14?. The sticker is missing the last number.

      The oil lamp part is decorative only. What happens when you plug it in ? Is it a mercury vapor bulb in the cyl. or what ?

      It only lights up when plugged in like a standard lamp. Nothing happens in the cylinder as far as we know. However, there looks like there is reminisce of oil inside the cylinder.

      It handles a reg. light bulb ? Maybe it was a skinny lava lamp ?
