pair of large antique 1800's ornate bronze glass argand cigar gas lighter lamps

Description

Up for sale is an extremely rare pair of antique 19th century gilt bronze and glass argand style cigar gas lighters.
they are large lamps and each measures 22 1/4 inches by 15 inches wide.
the lamps are made of extremely thick bronze, have acquired a lovely patina from age, and are very heavy.
they are done in a very ornate urn styled design and has elaborate reticulated arms.
each lamp also has two thick matte green glass pieces.
the lamps have a gas connection in the back and have valve controls right above the arms as shown in last photo. This is where the flame would come out of.
the lamps were most likely used in party ballrooms by people of extreme wealth.
they are in great antique condition, I had never hooked them up so I don't know if they work.
the glass could also use a deep cleaning
