Rare Antique Celadon Matador Brenner 19th Century Kerosene Lantern

This is a rare Matador Brenner kerosene lantern with a celadon porcelain reservoir. While all looks functional, it has not been lit for many years, so the workings of the wick mechanism are unknown (looks intact). Given that this lamp uses a center-draft, tubular, wick it was likely made in the last twenty-five years of the 19. There is no damage to this lamp.

It is 10 inches tall to the top of the lantern, and 19 inches to the top of the globe (not original). Without the globe the lantern weighs 2 pounds 3.1 ounces. The name "matador" and the number "15" are on the turn knob to control the flame. On the bottom of the celadon reservoir I see what looks like the number "5" and directly below the number "52".

There is nothing like this on the internet and could be listed under Asian art antiques as well as under kerosene lanterns. Truly a distinctive antique lantern. This item is in the category "Collectibles\Lamps, Lighting\Lamps".

The seller is "glacil" and is located in this country: US. This item can be shipped to North, South, or Latin America, all countries in Europe, all countries in continental Asia, Australia, South Africa, New Zealand, Egypt, Reunion.
