Victorian Corinthium Column Oil Lamp with Shade

This is a victorian oil lamp complete with shade. It measures 28 inches tall from bottom to top of funnel and the column is 13 inches tall with a 5.5 inches wide base.
The base is made of brass and the base is stepped. This then makes way for the conrinthium column that is decorated with acanthus leaves at the top and ridges down the column. Above this is a crystal hand cut bowl for the oil with a dimpled design. Then you have the brass gallery with the knob that turns the wick and reads Duplex No. 2. Above this is fitted the clear funnel and then the shade which is a lovely bubble design and in the most lovely pink/mauve colour.
This is all in lovely order with no chips, cracks, breaks at all.
