    I was given this pair of operable oil lamps due to my collection of antiques. Yet I have no idea where to start with identifying them. Any help is appreciated.

      These are newer lamps made within the past 40 years and may have been named by the retailers/suppliers but unless you have the original packaging or you find similar ones still available, you probably won't find a name. The thumbwheel on the burner might give you more info. RER(BOB)

      If the Oil Burner is original to the lamp...

      Nothing on the wheel I had checked there already. But thank you for the Age. I just found this website today was directed here when searching for the age of these lamps. Awesome site you guys are great

      Oh, lol. I've already been from kitchen to tools. What I can't find are the cobbler feet and stands used in shoe-making/repair. I have a dozen or more of these I stole from garage sale.
