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)
Circa 1900.
Dimensions 70 x 70 x 275 mm.
Signed Erlag Bei E G Zimmermann - Hanau 11220.
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.
