This late 19th century hanging candle lamp is a mold blown, beautiful deep amber glass in a quilted diamond pattern. Its original brass hanging mechanism is still on it and the gilded brass reflector at the top reads: CLARKE'S PATENT LONDON S TRADE MARK "FAIRY". The condition is excellent, the overall height is 18",the glass portion is 4" tall and the top rim is 2 3/4" in diameter.My understanding is that these candle lamps were hung on Victorian Christmas trees.

Most unusual English match holder, striker and candle holder. This a type known as a go-to-bed. This detailed little box has the top and bottom crafted of a beautiful beveled agate set in a brass frame which also incorporates the striker and a clever design-the right side, which holds a tiny candle, folds out to light your way. Very convenient if you were a guest in a 19th century stately home and a splendid addition to a match safe or box collection. The box is 1 7/8" long, 1 1/4" deep and 3/4" deep. Lovely color and condition.
