<p>[QUOTE="mmarco102, post: 9739329, member: 8289"]I’m seeing a whale oil lamp possibly. It would have had a hurricane glass chimney or globe. But if no place for a wick, fat style candle would be my guess. Thinking the chain might be a way of strapping it down to a desk or table, keeping it from tipping over on a stormy night ocean voyage. Ok, maybe that’s a stretch. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/wink.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=";)" unselectable="on" /></p><p>something similar in size</p><p>[ATTACH=full]475925[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
