LampDescription
Two glass ball shape lamp, top white, bottom pink, with floral design on both.
Gone with the Wind lamp, also called a chamber lamp, is a romantic term based on a famous motion picture film that recalls the form of a Kerosene lamp of the Civil War era. Such a lamp has a reservoir for Kerosene situated over a footed base above which there is a collar to adjust the wick. Above the burner, at the top is a glass chimney to protect the flame. Large or tall versions of such a lamp would not look greatly different from that of a Banqueting Lamp.
This lamp used to be kerosene, but has been converted into an electric lamp.
Gone with the Wind lamps are from the time period of 1880-1900, and are made of glass or china and have a globular shade atop a matching globular reservoir.
