For your consideration is this highly sought after artistic figural miniature oil lamp in mint condition? What looks like damage is some traces of gold paint that Again this figural handsome miniature oil lamp, burner & chimney are being offered in undamaged & in excellent working order.  The added hand painted floral shade for me adds to the elegant artistic statement the lamp offers. After reexamining the lamp I found a very very small 1/16 round and extremely shallow rub spot on the his front, mentioned for complete accuracy. The lamp is so rare most likely you will never see another let alone have the opportunity to buy a mint example. You couldn't find a more perfect hand painted shade for the lamp or a more perfect example. Including the beautiful blue color.
