Vintage paraffin lamp manufactured by the H.Boulenger et Cie. earthenware factory
It is composed of a white porcelain cylindrical base decorated with small birds and a fine glass chimney.
Boulenger is the name of a dynasty of French ceramics manufacturers who owned the Choisy-le-Roi earthenware factory from 1836 until its closure in 1938. The Boulenger earthenware factory therefore takes its name from its last owners.
It was one of the most important factories in the town, employing up to 1400 workers. It experienced a spectacular boom thanks to its tableware, its series of plates, decorative objects, tiles...which it sold not only in France but also throughout the world.
This pretty flame lamp will be perfect for bringing subdued lighting ad an authentic retro touch to your interior.
It is also an excellent gift for collectors and nostalgics
Very good state.
