Banquet Oil Lamp

Banquet Oil Lamps have been made for over 100 years but they are slowly disappearing. Banquet Oil Lamps have large hand painted glass globes on the top instead of a shade. Most globes have flowers or nature scenes painted on them. Banquet Oil Lamps were made so when a family was eating dinner they still could see everyone sitting at the table with a tall lamp in the center of the table. Banquet Oil Lamps tend to sell for a lot of money. The globes alone can sell for up to $400 and the lamp with the globe can sell for as high as $2,000.
