This oil lamp is 36 inches from base to top of chimney. I know it is a Banquet Lamp. I cannot find any makers mark on it or the burner. It is heavy like lead crystal. I believe it to be made between 1890 and 1915. It is complete as I purchased it many years ago. I think it may be libby but not sure. If anyone has any information please advise.

This lamp was made by the Yasemin Glass of the Black Sea area, they have been in business for a long time and you can research them on the internet. The way you can tell this is by the pattern and the pieces are glued together below the oil font. Hope this helps. Vickie
Hello, this is not Libbey or any other American Cut Glass Co. It is a Yasemin lamp. Russia is the point of origin.
yes it is and one nice lamp
does anyone know what the value of this lamp might be? I know what I paid for it
but I don't know what the value is. I did research Yasemin Glass but that site did not have much infomation on it.
