Description
An unusual late 19th Century German watch holder and night light in the form of a gas lamp post. Cast square base and body. The square lamp at the top of the post with clear glass candle holder. The cast hipped roof pierced to allow a small candle to burn inside. Small wire hook just below the lamp to hang the watch. (Watch not included)
A most interesting and unusual piece. It is doubtful that the candle would have lasted the whole night. As a modern replacement a small LED could probably be used in its place
