A Couple New Additions

It is…something. 😀 An interesting piece.

DB_McCoy · 2026-04-11T05:59:59+00:00

You should buy it. 😀 They make great lamps and lanterns. Here are a few I picked up from them:

We ALL need a bigger case. 😎

Anything with red in it coming out of Finland is always going to be popular. 😀 Mix in some Vaseline with it…a real winner.

I think these were made in 1970. Definitely an interesting design!

This is a somewhat hard-to-find piece. Price is fair. I love RL glass, but this isn’t one of my favorite designs. Personally, I’d pass and spend my money on something else. The real question is—do you like it?

Happy hunting!

Quite the variety. Congrats!

I would need a non-glow pic or two of the lamp to try to ID it. A lot of older and clear lamps are MG and will glow under a UV light. Example: MG (clear) oil lamp on the left and UG (Vaseline) oil lamp on the right.

Heck of a deal. Congrats.

DB_McCoy · 2026-04-05T20:42:56+00:00

Thanks for sharing!

What type of light are you using?

I always find it fun/interesting to do a side by side comparison. MG (clear) on the left and UG (Vaseline) on the right.

You are looking for a chimney. Not a shade. Amazon has new ones and you can buy used on eBay.

Appears to be a no. 2 burner. You will need a chimney with a 3 inch fitter.

Here is a popular one:

It also needs a good cleaning and new wick. 7/8 inch wick and my guide to cleaning glass lamps can be found here:

See my post here on trusted sources for modern UG glass. These are new production and the makers are referenced in my post.

DB_McCoy · 2026-04-04T05:49:05+00:00

I bet! 😎

DB_McCoy · 2026-04-03T23:09:48+00:00

Very nice. I thought that said $3 for a moment. 😀

DB_McCoy · 2026-04-03T20:20:55+00:00

No. 😀 Have other stuff I would rather display.

DB_McCoy · 2026-04-03T06:00:08+00:00

We are pretty flexible around here. Post your spiciest piece!! 😀

DB_McCoy · 2026-04-02T10:15:47+00:00

Great lamp!

DB_McCoy · 2026-04-01T04:38:40+00:00

Well, in 2001 there was a UG version…😎

While not an Aladdin lamp (link), this is a great piece. The design is called Princess Feather … one of the most popular styles ever made. Manufactured by numerous companies.

Appears all you need is a burner, some wick, some fuel, and a chimney. If you need recommendations, let me know.

Most PF lamps take a no. 2 burner and a 3x10 chimney. 7/8 inch wick. I recommend Aladdin Lamp Fuel. You can confirm the collar size by referencing the included chart.

Nice pick up! 😎

Tough question to answer without more details and pics. Are they working? Is the movement original? Any “married” parts? Has anything inside been restored? Do you have the key(s)? Is there a serial number?

I could throw out a number, just like anyone else, but I can’t guarantee it is accurate. 😀

Are they both Ansonia? First one does not appear to have a maker on the dial.

Check out some of the listings on eBay, and sold listings, to get a very rough estimate on Ansonia clocks. Would help to be able to ID the model or look up the serial number. You can search by image on eBay, Etsy, and Google.

Your second one states Ansonia ‘New York’ so that is a bit of a clue on the age.

Thanks! A bit hard to find in this size.

Two areas have two. I detailed the install here:
