Fairy Lamp - Bretby Pottery Candle Lamp

Bretby Nursery Lamp

If you collect Victorian fairy lamps, I am sure you are familiar with the wide range of figurals used as nursery lamps. Most are happy figures designed to bring a smile to a child's face. Some, however, you have to ask yourself "What were they thinking?" The Bretby "Werewolf" or sometimes called the "Hissing Cat" is such a design.

If you like pottery, this is one to add to your collection. For me. however, I prefer "fancy glass".

If you want to know more about this "weird" candle lamp, I have put an article on-line for you at:
