Large Rare 1901 Humphrey Gas Lamp – Electrified

From the start we were drawn to the simple elegance found in utilitarian objects. In addition there needs to be a unique and different feel to every object we pick. Thats what draws us to these gas age lamps. Not the ornate but the simple turn of the century examples found in stores, train stations and municipal buildings. We have rewired them to take standard candelabra size E12 light bulbs. These lamps have a quality and charm all their own.

The Humphrey Lamp Company has been around since 1901 and they are still manufacturing. Their large early fixtures were used to light streets in western U.S. towns. The example pictured above is from the companies first years of production. This lamp has survived intact with all it’s original glass. The clear glass globe is still boldly signed “The Humphrey”. All the nickel plated bass parts are intact. We were able to electrify the lamp with 2 sockets and not destroy any of the original gas parts. The deep pagoda style milk shade has a 16 inch diameter and the lamp is 30 inches tall. We will finish to your drop length… $1800
