In my never ending quest turning up the rarest of the rare coach parts, here's the real deal: James Cunningham, Son, & Company #25 lamps. Large 27" height; heavy beveled glass panels are 6.5" x 5.5". Very very good original condition. Exterior has been carefully cleaned as to not disturb patina and possibly damage value. 85% of black paint remains on areas that were painted. Interior silver plating is outstanding. Clear makers mark on both lamps excellent. One original wick is also included (not shown). Research shows they would be correct from 1882 on but unknown until when. Carriage dealer's professional appraisal is higher than my $2650 asking price. Offered here for a short time before advertised elsewhere. Interesting funeral related trades +/- considered.
