    Each lamp is considered Rare and would be a very proud possion of any collector. These are just a few small Figural oil lamps I thought you would enjoy.
    The second lamp is extremely rare with the base containing a burner which has a thumb wheel that raises & lowers the wick as well as a chimney that extends out from the Gnomes head. When lit the Gnome's green eyes lite up and becomes even cuter.

    The Lions & Tiger lamps are known as finger lamps and can easily be transported throughout the house~ As an example since these lamps were created in the 1800''s they could be used to say go up dark stairs to a bedroom which would now be lit & lite the fireplace using the finger lamp. Miniature oil lamps were also used to lite children s rooms or sick rooms. also called "nursery lamps".
