Description
Wall lamp from around 1800. Tin-plate lamps and sconces were common in many homes during the 18th and 19th centuries throughout Sweden. Often, like this one, they had a simple shape with a dotted pattern of beads and flowers.
Gives a pleasant glow with its tinted surface. One of the special features of this particular lamp is that when the light has burned down to a short stub, a shadow angel appears on the wall behind, with curly hair and wings that move when the flame flutters.
Height 25,5 cm. Width 16,5 cm. Depth 7 cm. Tin-plated black plate.
