Welcome to Antique Lamp World , my name is Mel Soderholm. I have  collected kerosene and gas lighting for over 25 years and now is the time for me to sell my collection. Many of the lamps and shades are very rare and hard to find. All of the lamps and shades are antique. Some of the lamps Have been converted to electric, some have been polished and lacquered, others are sold as found. I will make note of their condition in the descriptions. I guaranty your satisfaction with any purchase.
