Glass Oil Burner
« on: March 22, 2010, 11:45:18 PM »
Picked these oil burners up from a local charity shop at the weekend. I was wondering if anybody could tell me anything about them.
They are 10cm X 6cm and the rim around the base is about 1cm thick. Does anyone know anything about them :huh: If so please comment. Thanks

I think that these oil burners are pretty old actually. They look modern but the metal part is slightly rusting, so does that mean it's old? I looked on the internet, nothing looks anything like it. Still hoping for luck. :)

Unusual pieces, i would not have thought very old,could be 20 or 30 years old, Czech perhaps,
best i can do, hopefully some else will do better.

Thanks Andy, This information has helped but i still need to carry on researching for more clues. The oil burners are chipped and scratched at the base which i am enclined to agree with you  on probable age. Still looking for identity.  ;)
