Ca 1890 US Lighthouse service Brass Table Lamp - 5th Order Fresnel oil lamp

Super rare 5th order Brass Table lamp by Joseph Funck, ca. 1890 - Handmade in the lamp shop, Staten Island, NY. Amazing precision brasswork and fully restored to operational order. The Lighthouse service issued these to all the stations that used the 5th-order Fresnel lens. It is made to be of general use around the Lighthouse, but is the exact duplicate of the 5th-order oil lamp, so if the primary lamp went out of service, the keeper could simply remove the shade and wire holder and put it directly into the lens, which is a perfect fit.
