The Skipper Oil Lamp is the smallest in the Mariner family of lamps. The base of this oil lamp is handspun on a lathe by our talented pewter spinners. Our oil lamps create the perfect ambience to any room, indoors or outdoors. They make a stunning wedding gift that "lights the way" for newlyweds; they also make meaningful gifts for anniversaries, birthdays, and retirements, for anyone who has added warmth, light, and beauty to your life.
Let your lamp illuminate your holiday decor in December, warm the long nights throughout the winter, and then light up the patio during spring and summer. All year round, whether on a dining table, a coffee table, or outside on a porch, oil lamps provide beautiful, warm lighting that's perfect for a gathering of loved ones or a night of solitary reflection. They are as functional as it is beautiful; a Danforth oil lamp will reliably light the darkness during a power outage, providing security, peace, and even beauty during a time of uncertainty.
Watch an oil lamp being made on the Discovery Channel's How It's Made, which shows Danforth Pewter spinners making a Mariner Oil Lamp.
