Pair of black and brass English carriage lamps, both converted to electricity. Bevelled glass, pagoda shaped air vents at top, silver plate on copper reflectors internally (need polishing), and brass surrounds to the glass. Red circular small glass panels at one side (the side with the door) - this was the rear of the light, but you need access to the door, so if hanging on a wall, it would become the side. Left and right sided lamps. They each measure 40.6 cm long and the tops are approx. 14 cm square. Original condition. Legally, they will have to be rewired. Some paint chips (easily touched up), other age signs. There are no brackets with them. These are not spotless polished new-looking lamps. They have seen age wear and use, and date from the mid to late 1800s. You could restore them - a great project.
