Description

A virtually unused Watson-type microscope lamp with zero faults. Standing 11 inches tall (extendable), the lamp consists of a circular black enamelled base, brass upright terminating in a black round finger handle, semi-circular paraffin/alcohol reservoir with original rounded stopper, gilt brass burner assembly (wick never used), blue glass chimney and white ceramic shade (perfect). As seen in other earlier Watson models with signature brass base, the support bracket for the ceramic shade is a flattened split ring rather than the Swift round stock bracket. The reservoir is supported by the neck rather than being in a brass cup (adjustable). The original pine wood case measures 12 x 6 x 6 inches with brass handle and both hooks intact. A finer example you will not see for some time!
