Antique Oil Lamp with Kosmos Brenner Burner
I did much research and have learned that Brenner means made in Germany. But for the life of me I cannot find out who made the lamp
If anyone can help me with the marking on this lamp or recognize the glass art work of this lamp, I would really appreciate your help.
Really nice! Luv the colours!
Wild & Wessel of Berlin in 1865 developed the "Kosmos" burner (Brenner means burner in German). Your lamp is not as old as 1865. Gaudard in France (Kosmos) still produce Kosmos and Kosmos-Brenner lamps. The glass appears to be the style called tortoise shell. Does the glass have an iridescent quality? Could you post a picture of the lamp without the shade? You have a great picture of the makers mark, so I'm sure sooner or later, someone will know who made it. Looks very nice!
