Step back in time and illuminate your world with the elegance of a Gasolier, a Victorian-era gaslight fixture created by Thackara, Buck & Co. And later Thackara, Sons & Co. In the late 1800s. These intricately designed lamps, such as the one depicted in "The Music Room" at the Royal Pavilion in Brighton, were once common sights in grand homes and French restaurants. The Gasolier's detail, as seen in the 1845 bronzed & gilt brass example, showcases the craftsmanship and artistry of the era. In the schoolroom at Wickham Hall, Kent, 1897, a Gasolier casts a warm, inviting glow, adding character to the room. Browse through the pages of William Tarn and Co.'s illustrated catalogues from the late 1800s and early 1900s, and you'll find numerous these beautiful fixtures. Advertisements from the same period, like those for Clarkes Patent Fairy lamps and Charles Joyner & Co. Lighting, show the variety of designs available. Whether it's a romantic dinner or a cozy study, a Gasolier adds a touch of timeless charm and sophistication to any space.
