<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TallCakes, post: 4479816, member: 107&quot;]anyone have Thuro&#039;s books on oil lamps? perhaps there is something to be found there. All I can surmise is this would be called &#039;Daisy &amp; Vine&#039; but all those I&#039;m finding only speculate on the maker; and those have a different band connecting the pedestal and font as below:</p><p><img src="https://i.etsystatic.com/6350501/r/il/259939/2998375896/il_1140xN.2998375896_fjpj.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I have found these with fonts in blue, white, amethyst and cranberry/red; all having the different connecting band. Here&#039;s a WP search to go thru (just bypass the nonrelevant):</p><p><a href="https://www.worthpoint.com/inventory/search?offset=20&amp;max=20&amp;query=vine+daisy+oil+lamp&amp;categories=" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.worthpoint.com/inventory/search?offset=20&amp;max=20&amp;query=vine+daisy+oil+lamp&amp;categories=" rel="nofollow">vine daisy oil lamp - page 2 | WorthPoint</a></p><p><br /></p><p>my guess: with the connecting band shown here, this is a later reproduction possibly from Wright (Wright acquired many EAPG era molds and contracted to have items produced using their molds by companies like Fenton). Did find one example using this pedestal with marking indicating Wright:</p><p><a href="https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/fenton-20-hurricane-lamp-daisy-fern-3925541047" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/fenton-20-hurricane-lamp-daisy-fern-3925541047" rel="nofollow">Fenton 20&quot; Hurricane Lamp - Daisy &amp;amp; Fern Cranberry Glass Font + Milk Glass Base | #3925541047 (worthpoint.com)</a></p><p><br /></p><p>also found another known &#039;Lincoln Drape&#039; (c1860s) font on this pedestal made by Hobbs Brockunier that includes a Thuro reference:</p><p><a href="https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/antique-kerosene-oil-lamp-patriotic-3871719546" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/antique-kerosene-oil-lamp-patriotic-3871719546" rel="nofollow">Antique Kerosene OIl Lamp - Patriotic Civil War - Lincoln Drape 1860s | #3871719546 (worthpoint.com)</a></p><p><br /></p><p>to summarize: to me this looks possibly to be a &#039;Daisy &amp; Vine&#039; reproduction, but I&#039;m not that knowledgeable on oil lamps...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
