Catalogue Note: We could locate no examples or information on these extremely rare and unusual shade supports. They are very finely cast and obviously of factory production. It is very rare to find whale oil period lighting with intact period set-ups.Excellent condition, fonts undamaged, one with some light interior residue, one example's foot with a small chip to two corners, along with expected minor flakes/roughness to each. Set-ups undamaged except for one shade fitter with a small shallow chip, which does not affect the profile, each fitter with expected minute flakes/roughness.Condition
