Rare Antique Gilded Gold Pair Candelabra Lamps By Ronson - Art Metal Works For Sale
YOU ARE offerDING ON A STUNNING RARE ANTIQUE PAIR OF GILDED GOLD CANDELABRA LAMPS MADE BY THE ART METAL WORKS (AMW) ALSO KNOWN AS RONSON (LIGHTER COMPANY). APPARENTLY IN THE EARLY DAYS THEY DID DO LAMPS, CANDELABRA'S, AND SOME OTHER THINGS IN ADDITION TO LIGHTERS. THEIR WORK WAS HIGHLY REGARDED AS QUALITY PIECES. IT IS RARE TO SEE PIECES LIKE THIS COME UP.
THIS PAIR IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION FOR THE AGE. THE GOLD HAS NICE PATINA. THE STEMS ARE RIBBED AND BLACK. ALL THE FLOWERS AND LEAVES ARE ALL THERE AND IN GOOD CONDITION. THERE IS A BUTTON KNOB AT THE BASE THAT YOU TURN TO LIGHT AND YOU CAN SEE THEY BOTH WORK. THE CARDBOARD COVERS ARE NOT IN GREAT SHAPE (SEE PHOTOS) BUT SINCE THEY ARE ORIGINAL I PREFERRED THEM, BUT YOU CAN CHANGE.
THE BEADED BULB COVERS AND LIGHT BULBS ARE ONLY TO SHOW HOW THESE LAMPS CAN LOOK AND ARE NOT INCLUDED. AGAIN THE BEADED BULB COVERS AND LIGHT BULBS ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THIS SALE.
THEY ARE MARKED UNDERNEATH "A.M.W." MADE IN U.S.A. NEWARK, NJ". THERE IS SOMETHING ELSE THERE THAT I CANNOT READ.
ALSO I DON'T KNOW WHAT TYPE OF METAL POSSIBLY BRASS OR BRONZE, BUT I JUST DON'T KNOW.
A BEAUTIFUL PAIR OF CANDELABRA LAMPS THAT WILL BE WELL PACKED AND INSURED FOR SHIPPING.
History
Art Metal Works
The Ronson lighter company started as The Art Metal Works in 1886 by Louis V. Aronson, a gifted man who at 16 years old received a U.S. patent for a commercially valuable metal plating process he developed. "His
experiments, which he has been conducting since his early youth,
resulted in 1893 in the discovery of a process for electrically
producing tinplate. Much money was expended upon improving the
process... and has been of great practical value to the whole industry." [1] Retaining its rights, he sold the patent and used its proceeds to open the Art Metal Works in New York City.[2] The following year he moved his factory to Newark, New Jersey.
Soon the company was producing a variety of high quality lamps, book
ends, statues and other decorative items, prized today for their detail
in the collector marketplace.
