Antique French Silver Leopard Head Alcohol Oil Lamp Essential Oil DiffuserPresented is a silver two-piece alcohol or oil lamp (or essential oil diffuser) with a leopard or other jungle feline as the handle! This really interesting antique, probably made in Paris or Lille France, mid-1800's from 80 percent or more solid silver, consists of two pieces, a pedestaled cup with animal handle, and the perfectly fitting cover with a hole in the top where the wick, or perfume, if used as a scent diffuser, comes through.
The rim of the cup and the cover are both hallmarked with a triad of fleur-de-lis (
early sixteenth century French royal flag
) and the number "3".
The condition of the piece is fantastic. You will see old assayers marks on the underside of the pedestal and inside the cup.
Cup Diameter: 2 1/2 inches
Height: 4 1/2 inches
Weight: 126.3 grams
