This oil lamp required by Designer and Director was one of the most challenging props to source for the production, mainly due to the fact that they are quite vintage and not very common to find. The lamp had to work/have real flame while on stage so the priority was to source a lamp with a metal base rather than a glass one, to prevent any accident involving glass/lamp oil/and fire from happening. After lots of research, and a bit of luck, I managed to find the right lamp which arrived on time for tech week and worked without any problem during all performances. | This oil lamp required by Designer and Director was one of the most challenging props to source for the production, mainly due to the fact that they are quite vintage and not very common to find.

In order to use the oil lamp we also purchased a lamp wick and a bottle of lamp oil. The lamp is now stored in the production office as fragile prop. | In order to use the oil lamp we also purchased a lamp wick and a bottle of lamp oil.

'''Instructions:''' | |||
Unscrew the wick holder from the base of the lamp. | |||
Pour the lamp oil into the base of the lamp, filling just more than half of it. | |||
Place the wick holder back onto the base. | |||
Turn the lamp upside down to allow the entire wick to absorb the oil. | |||
Now you can light up the lamp and place the glass shade back on. | |||
n.b.: A “safe” kind of flame should have clear edges and not produce any black smoke. You can reduce or increase the size of the flame by turning the wheel adjuster on the metal base. | |||
