The finish has a beautiful shine , I have polished this with a light metal polish. It is complete and ready to light. I find one small pin size ding on the upper font, otherwise no dents or dings.
The chimney is an original marked "Aladdin" Lox-on type, it has no chips or cracks. The burner is complete, however the wick will currently not move. The heavily used wick is likely stuck to the draft tube from years of use. Often times when the lamp is lit, the heat will allow the wick to move again.
The burner, gallery, outer wick tube are all in excellent condition and are easily taken apart. The oil fill cap is correct and easily turns on/off. It also has a 10" tripod, it is not a Model 12 tripod, as it should sit snugly against the font, but it does function properly and will hold a 10" fitter shade.
The lamp measures 23 tall to top of the chimney. Please check out our other oil lamp listings.
