The Bradley & Hubbard Manufacturing Company, founded in 1852 in Meriden, Connecticut, by Nathaniel Bradley, William Bradley, and Walter Hubbard, became a premier American manufacturer of high-quality lamps and metal goods. They were known for high-end, artistic, and often neoclassical, Art Nouveau, or filigree-overlay designs. This Victorian parlor lamp features an Opaline glass globe with hand painted florals in yellow and green. It has the original chimney hurricane shade. The oil reservoir and base are ornate brass and are signed on the side "The B & H" and on the screw on lid "B & H." The light switch is located on the base and lamp works well. Lamp measures 27" high and 10" wide. Nice condition for age, only damage are some chips around the bottom edge of the opaline globe that do not show when seated on the stand. Patina and wear to metal commensurate with age.
