Oh how I wish that lamp was in my house here in Texas! I love it. I have about 100 oil lamps and this lamp would absolutely be right at the top 10 of my collection. I have few western lamps and I love them all. Thanks for sharing. They are difficult to accurately date the lamp as they often have parts that are not original to the lamp. It certainly looks like a hand painted lamp. Nice.
TreasureTex thank you I am based in Australia and I have no idea of the history behind this lamp
I will see what I can find out for you but don't sell it without contacting me first, please. I love to collect the old western oil lamps. -Gary Penney Lakewood Trees
This would be called a Gone with the wind banquet oil lamp. They were common around the turn of the century, 1890's - 1900's but I have not narrowed down the date or manufacturer yet. The shade is missing, it would have likely had a large round matching shade. Australia is a fine place, we hear.
I found one just like it!
