Lot #54: Victorian Apothecary Scale and Aladdin Genie Cigar Lighter

Starting bidding

$1.00

Time Remaining:

Bidding starts in 0d 2h 54m

For the collector of extraordinary conversation pieces, we've got you covered. A silver-coated metal Aladdin's lamp reveals not a genie but a screw-top opening for a candle or originally oil to light your cigar, as this was originally intended. A winged male cherub forms the handle. Tape near the spout can be removed. The decorative finial on spout is missing as the screw shaft extends from the spout. This is where the cigar lighting filament action would occur. Otherwise in good shape. Base is a tapered patinated black metal box with silver garland applique. Lamp was photographed on top of metal tissue box (included!) And a large Victorian glass-topped apothecary balance scale with a white marble base, and two delicately balanced "spoons" for measuring medicines inside. Two small drawers at base open (missing drawer pulls) but middle unit with knob did not budge for us. We also added a heavy duty swag lamp or plant holder, and a monster silver finial. Dimensions: Aladdin's Lamp: 12"H x 12"L Scale: 7"H x 16"W x 7"D; Plant/lamp chain : 25"L Pickup category timeslot {B}
