Opalescent Coin Spot Oil Kerosene Lamp 1883 Rare LaBelle Drip Foot Base Antique
Look no further for an outstanding opalescent coin spot kerosene lamp. This magnificent piece features a rare 1883 La Belle Glass Co. drip foot base—complete with the original lip designed to catch drips—paired with a font pattern documented in Thuro, book 2, page 101-j as "Angela."
The stem is a showstopper: a spiral diagonal swirl layered over a band of vertical optic prisms that catches light beautifully. The base bears the embossed patent mark: "PAT. MAY 8 1883," confirming its authenticity and age.
A truly gorgeous example of 19th-century American glass craftsmanship, perfect for the serious collector or anyone drawn to the artistry of antique lighting.
