| Index No. A8045 | Unusual Night Light Watch Holder |
| An unusual late 19th Century German watch holder and night light in the form of a gas lamp post. Cast square base and body painted black. The square lamp at the top of the post with dark blue glass on two sides and dark red glass on the other two. The cast hipped roof pierced to allow a small candle to burn inside. A small wire hook just below the lamp to hang the watch. | ||
| Signed | Erlag Bei E G Zimmermann - Hanau 11220 | |
| Circa | 1900 | |
| Dimensions | 70 x 70 x 275 mm | ||
| 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. |
