    Hi all,

    This is a nice example of a Louis Runge gravity pendant circa 1900/1910.
    Just like Conny I don't have a model number for this one.
    We think it's series number 3..
    The only difference with Conny's lamp is the basin of this one is ribbed.
    You can see Conny's lamp on this page.

    This Louis Runge gas pendant is in perfect physical condition no stress cracks in the brass no dents it has only undergone a deep cleaning so far.
    Burner and opaline in perfect original condition after more than 115 years.
    And planned a second cleaning and a thorough overhaul for a light test.
    A large batch of spare parts arrived with this lamp.
    The original ignition fork about twenty hooks for sleeves two sleeves the Crown, a 4 mm square key to disassemble the injector a brass fittings three Louis Runge burners two crystal chimneys two technical documents in French on the Louis Runge burner installation of the sleeve adjustment of the burner density of the essences to use.

    This lamp was discovered in the Pyrénées-Oriental in France.

    Best regards,
    Titoo.
