Nothing Says Old School Like A Brass Oil Lamp


Nothing says ‘Old School’ than an oil lamp. Some people don’t even think oil lamps even exist anymore, but how wrong they are. A brass oil lamp is quite common in household now, sometimes adding to the design aesthetic or actually used to light an area. Whether bought at an antique store or purchased online, a great many places are still selling oil lamps.

A brass oil lamp is, naturally, made from brass, but also has a glass covering over where the flame will be. Brass is a naturally beautiful metal is done the right way, and maintaining it so that is doesn’t develop rust or anything similar is essential. Oil lamps can have many different metals, and brass is just one of the types.

A great thing about oil lamps is that they don’t run on electricity like multi light pendants do. Because of this, if someone just needs a small light for reading or something similar, then they can forgo running up the electricity bill and instead use an oil lamp to brighten the darkness a bit. Kerosene lamps are available, but brass oil lamps have their own charm that can certainly add some character to the room.

There are some brass oil lamps that can even hang from the wall instead of being placed on a surface. This is totally a blast from the past, and most people who hang a brass oil lamp usually just do it for home décor and it doesn’t have any conventional use.

The glass part can be interchangeable with other different shades that vary in color and design. Instead of a clear covering of glass, the flame can flicker behind a quilted green glass, giving a very entrancing appearance. Oil lamps of all kinds, as well as their corresponding parts, can be found either in antique stores or found in great quantities online. If parts tend to stop working, they can be exchanged with other parts; it just takes a bit of looking around to find the right part.

It’s always great to use things from the past in home décor. A brass oil lamp can not only give some interior design, but it can also be used as a lighting aid to help lower the electricity bill. With many different designs and glass coverings to choose from, people can certainly get a use out of the brass oil lamp, even it just for decoration.
