Cast Iron Windmill Hanging Parlor Library Lamp Unique European Dutch Design:
$269.99

I don\'t often use the word rare but in this case I think this hanging library or parlor oil lamp is rare.  I\'ve not been able to find another one which doesn\'t happen often.  Also confusing to me is the cast iron windmills, all the support chain and designs and the hanging ring are all  cast iron.  The font holder is not and must be either spelter or pewter I am not sure which.  The lamp has had some things I think that are not original.  First it would have had a pully system but now at the top it is fixed to the mounting ring as pictured.  I feel like the smoke bell hanging ring is not original as usually they are a hook not a ring, but it does work.    None of these issues are very difficult to fix if someone wanted to.   The light fixture measures approximately 28\" from the top ring to the bottom ring 17 1/2\" from one windmill to the next across.  The shade ring is 14\" with a white milk glass shade.  The lamp will be partially disassembled for safe shipping. When I opened the connectors one of them split and will need to be replaced. Please see last picture.   I consulted a couple of lamp groups who think it is European in origin and because the of the cast iron and they believed it was probably 1950s or 60s time period.  A very interesting light.
