The beautifully contoured pewter base is handspun and on a century-old lathe in our Middlebury, Vermont workshop. The unique handle of this lovely lamp makes it easy to move from the front porch to the dining room to the living room.

Our oil lamps create a cozy, unique atmosphere anywhere you place them. They are as fitting for holiday decor, providing an intimate ambience that's perfect for sitting aroud the Christmas tree, as for hosting a backyard barbecue in the summer. Our small oil lamps are excellent for accent lighting. A wonderful wedding gift that "lights the way" for newlyweds as they begin their lives together, an oil lamp also makes a meaningful anniversary gift that honors many years of love and intimacy.

Danforth oil lamps are as functional as they are beautiful. Use them nightly as the sun goes down to create a beautiful evening ritual, and use them when the power goes out to light up the darkness.

Watch our talented artisans at work in the Discovery Channel's feature How It's Made, which shows Danforth pewter spinners creating a Mariner Oil Lamp.

  • Beautiful piece of craftmanship. 5

    Bought this as a Valentines gift but couldn't wait until then to gift it. It now has a home on top the stereo speaker in the family room. I'm already picturing a Seaport lamp on the other speaker.

  • poor quality, worse customer service 1

    Posted by JohnB on May 10th 2022

    We bought one of these lamps 2 years ago and have used it occasionally. Recently the knob to advance the wick stopped doing so. I wrote to the company to ask for their suggestions about what might have happened and how to fix it. After being ignored for a few weeks, then bounced around to a few different people, the final answer was (and this is an exact quote), "She said you need a new replacement burner, and probably a new wick at this point. The burner is $25.00 and a new wick is $1.50." Since I had nothing to lose, I took the burner apart and found that the wheel was poorly fastened to the axle and once I crimped it tight again it is now functional. For a company with such a good reputation, I expected better craftsmanship (and even better customer service).

  • Beautiful! 5

    This lamp was a gift from my son. I light it every morning while I enjoy my Bible-reading quiet time and coffee. The craftsmanship is just beautiful! It will be a treasured heirloom in my family for generations. This is like a gateway piece...makes me want more lamps and pewter things in my life!

  • Good product but glass globes fall off easily when moving lamp. Replaced twice already and waiting to replace third time 5

  • Beautiful Little Lamp 5

    My wife loves this lamp beyond my understanding. It is lovely, well made, and surprisingly bright. I also very much appreciate that she is no longer using open flame candles.

  • Well proportioned and safe 5

    Posted by Christine on Aug 15th 2020

    I was looking for a practical alternative to candles during a power failure when inevitably someone has failed to return the flashlight to it's proper place! I now keep this beautiful lamp filled with oil sitting on my entry hall table with one of those tiny little boxes of kitchen matches perched on it's tray. The proportions of this lamp, and its integral, wide tray prevent accidental tipping over and the open handle loop makes it stable to carry where needed. And, best of all, it is as beautiful as it is practical. The elegant "frosty" (rather than highly polished) finish prevents finger prints from showing. The mechanism for advancing the wick is of high quality, making it easy to adjust the flame. Such a beautiful piece!

  • Very happy 5

  • A gift to The One I Love 5

    Posted by Ted Cormier on Jun 15th 2019

    I became a paraplegic after a fall 2 years ago, and I wanted to give my wife a special gift for all she has done for me as my caregiver. We enjoy sitting out on our back porch listening to music and audible books in the evening by candlelight. I selected this chamber lamp and with its long last seen light time and it's exquisite design it was more than any picture can describe. My wife was that a loss for words when she open the gift and all I can say is it is now one of her favorite pieces. I used to work with wood and make things for my wife with my own hands, Thank you Danforth pewter for continuing the handmade craftsmanship trade that allowed me to give my wife such a gift.
