Lamplighter & Street Lamp - Carollers

$1,250.00

Condition: Pristine | Sold as a Set: The Lamplighter and the Lamp Post | Base dated 1999

This listing is a little different. I’m offering the Lamplighter together with the Caroller Lamp Post, so he finally has a lamp to light.

Look closely at his pole and you’ll see it’s a real lamplighter’s tool: a wick at the tip of one arm for lighting the lamp, and a small brass snuffer on the other for putting it out at dawn. He’s dressed for a long, cold night on his rounds, in a brown wool coat with shell buttons, green mittens, a plaid wool scarf, and tweed trousers with a plaid patch sewn on one knee. And he’s grinning up at the lamp like he’s never once been tired of the job.

The Lamp Post stands taller than he does, with a turned wood post, brass ladder rests, and a brass lantern with amber glass that glows when it’s lit.

The Lamplighter’s base is dated 1999. Sculpted by [name], then cast, hand-painted and dressed in hand-sewn clothing in the Simpich Doll Shop in Colorado Springs.

Every Caroller set gathers under a streetlight. This one comes with the man who lights it.
