A couple of years ago I got a BR (M) paraffin lamp which I planned to use as a table lamp in the summer in the evening.
However should it be polished? Or painted?
It looks pretty much like this but the top dome is black.
I was going to shine up the bottom with brasso but not sure if it should be painted? I would leave it weathered but some bits are a nice dull brass colour others are sort of shiny so it’s a real miss match.
Any info on the lamp, its age and use etc would be great too
thanks
