Rare Vintage Ceramic Oil Lamp – Tower Design with Wild & Wessel Burner (1930s)

This exceptional ceramic oil lamp in the shape of a tower is a rare and highly collectible piece. The base is finished in a soft light blue tone, giving it a distinctive and elegant look. This model is also documented in Mahot’s reference book, although the example shown there features additional painted details.

The burner is an authentic Wild & Wessel piece from Germany, a renowned manufacturer of high-quality lamp components. There is a slight play in the burner fitting (as shown in the video), but it stands straight and functions perfectly. Originally, this lamp would have had a different chimney design.
