Large Rare 1901 Humphery Gas Lamp

December 23, 2011 in Blog 0

The Humphery Lamp Company has been around since 1901 and they are still manufacturing. Their large early fixtures were used to light streets in western U.S. towns. The example pictured above is from the companies first year of production. This lamp has survived intact with all it’s original glass. The clear glass teardrop still boldly signed “The Humphery”. All the bass parts are intact. We were able to electrify the lamp with 3 sockets and not distroy any of the original gas parts. The large milk shade has a 19 inch diameter and the lamp is 26 inches tall. The condition is amazing with only a few chips on the original lime green porcelain finish. It even has gold leaf pin striping. SOLD
