Not entirely sure, but I believe this probably would’ve been an old carriage light or railroad light from the hangers on the back. From how heavy duty this would’ve been originally, I am leaning towards railroad.
the fuel tank inside if it’s original has an 1883 date in the cap and is made of copper or brass.
Is a solid case, the lens I’m sure has been replaced somewhere along the way, and someone has electrified this, which makes it into quite a nice unique lamp.
Is quite rusty , Has quite a bit of pitting. Could use some more cleaning. One of the hinges on the doors is broken loose.
But just has a great primitive look, the cord is in good shape, there is some electrical tape where it connects to the switch inside, but please view all photos for condition details.
Measures 19 inches tall 9 1/2 inches wide and with the hangers is about 10 1/2 inches deep
