    Description

    From my parents' travels of the 1970s-1980s is this oil lamp, without wick.  I believe it's made of copper, it's large at 7 3/8 inches tall by 7 1/4 inches wide, and it's base is about 3 7/8 inches in diameter.  I know little of it except it appears to be hand-hammered, has its lid for the oil well, and that it appears there may have been a dark oil or tar inside.  They were gifted by friends and governments on that trip; I have no idea how old it really is, but just the appearance is great for ornamentation, even if not used for its original purpose.
    Be sure to look at my other listings; I do combine postage without adding fees.  Postage will be more only if the box is over 12 inches in a diameter or the weight makes the price go up.  I normally ship Priority, but if you'd like something else, tell me before you pay.  Sorry, no returns; everything is one of a kind.
