Rare Late 18th Early 19th Century Dutch Brass Whale Oil Lamp.

Circa 1790.

Nice example of the rare large filigree work, but sadly missing the top area.

However,even a novice metalworker could replace the missing sections with simple sheet brass and a little soldering, which is all it would have been in the first place.

Interesting and underated these things as they are quite ingenious being able to free stand and be hung up and the flattened off back to the base ensures the lighted wick is kept away from the wall as far as possible.
