Antique 19th C Victorian Amethyst Glass Christmas Candle Fairy Light Lamp. We are taking a spring break. Antique 19th C Victorian Amethyst Glass Christmas Candle Fairy Light Lamp 3.75", and in very good condition. We used these on our large feather treee as well as in windows. We placed a little battery light in each, and used a little device to light them and turn them off. Really nice with the flickering. I had also planned to have a craftsman make a metal tree, and hang them on there. But at 81, I just need to down-size.... according to my wife Sharon. Victorian Fairy Christmas Tree Tumblers (or Fairy Lamps) were popular safe alternative to open candles flames in pre-electric times. These small, often quilted or diamond-patterned glass cups held oil or candles to illuminate trees, originating from Clarke’s lamp designs favored by Queen Victoria. Originally designed by Samuel Clarke in the Victorian era as safe, covered, tealight-style lamps for nurseries and homes, their use spread to holiday decorating to prevent fire hazards We are taking a spring break. Getting ready for mini-convention, cleaning, a bit of traveling, and some time to be with eachother and family again. These fairy lamp tumblers being listed today are vintage, not reproductions. I guarantee that. I start all my auctions at .99 cents as it is an auction and I just never cared when I went to live auction and the auctioneer started very high, and then spent time backing down to get a bid. I know it is a low bid, but that is how I list every item on Ebay. I am more than happy to combine postage to save money. Just let me know you are multiple bidding and I will invoice you when you are finished bidding and wish for me to send the items. Then, I will combine postage and send to you, and send final invoice. If any questions about this, please email me.
