About this product
Product Information
Excerpt from Catalogue of an Important Collection of Antique Historical Lamps, Candlesticks, Lanterns, Relics, Etc The collection is particularly rich in American, English and German pewter, the American portion including pieces by Gleason and Boardman, and a small graceful specimen from the home of Josiah Quincy which, according to a family tradition, came from the famous workshop of Paul Revere, in Boston. Among the pieces of English pewter it will be noted that several bear hall-marks, which is of extremely rare occurrence. There is also a German pewter Horological Lamp of particular interest and value. Among the brass lamps and candlesticks are some fine examples of Colonial and English workmanship, of which the candlestick from the old U. S. S. "Constitution" is a very beautiful example. The collection also includes rare specimens in iron, tin, glass, bronze and clay, of particular interest among the latter being an early Dutch-American pottery lamp and a piece of Italian Majolica. The present catalogue has been compiled, or rather condensed, from Dr. Norton's own descriptive list. It was his custom to write a brief history of each piece as he secured it and as this memoranda was solely for his own use and never intended for publication as a sales catalogue, it has been thought advisable to retain only the more important features of his descriptions. As a quest for books or pamphlets of any kind on the subject of old Lamps is sure to reveal an astonishing dearth of literature extant in this engaging department of antiquarian lore, we will ask the recipient of this catalogue, if not interested, to preserve it for some friend who would perhaps be glad to keep it for reference.
