The Bay Oil Lamp, the medium-sized member of the Cape family of oil lamps, is an exquisite piece of lighting that combines the signature Danforth techniques of spinning pewter and hammering metal.

Our talented artisans are constantly exploring form and function in pewter, and the design of the Cape family lamps is a testament to their inventive creativity, combining techniques of spinning with hammering to create a lamp that is genuinely unique.

A wonderful wedding gift that "lights the way" for newlyweds as they begin their lives together, our lamps also make a stunning anniversary gift that celebrates years of warmth and intimacy. Let your lamp illuminate your holiday decor in December, warm the long nights throughout the winter, and then supplement or even replace the outdoor fire during spring and summer. All year round, whether on a dining table, a coffee table, or outside on a porch, the Bay Oil Lamp provides beautiful warm lighting that's perfect for a gathering of loved ones. Also, it's as functional as it is beautiful; it will reliably light the darkness during a power outage, providing security, peace, and even beauty during a time of uncertainty.

  • A treasured possession 5

    Years ago a good friend from the Boston area gave us a Shallot oil lamp that lives mostly on our kitchen table, but does extra duty to light the table for cocktail or dinner outdoor. We light it almost every night, particularly in the winter, and after so much use it still looks and performs as new. Danforth quality and craftsmanship is outstanding.

  • We're very pleased 5

    We have 2 of these Bay Oil Lamps for our dining room table, make a nice change from the usual candles when we have guests. And during a Florida hurricane they can double as emergency lighting, along with our LED lanterns. Unfortunately we cannot have a standby generator, as some of our friends do. During a hurricane power outage you need all the light sources you can get. We also have the matching Cape lamp for our coffee table, likewise a novel alternative to candles that our friends enjoy. Additionally, the lamp oil you market is odorless & smokeless, unlike the kerosene oil we used when I was a kid in the 1950s for our older "hurricane" lamps as we called them, because that's the only time we'd use them. Because unlike these lamps, not something particularly suitable for a dinner setting. But your pewter is very elegant, their style goes well with our other tableware, and the size is perfect for the purpose, they don't overpower the table. We have already recommended them to others.

  • My Wife Loved It 5

    Purchased this for Mother's Day and my wife was quite pleased. It is beautifully crafted and looks great on our mantel. Purchased the oil but will probably never light it as my wife is now very protective of her "wonderful, hand crafted lamp".

  • Saw it on How It's Made TV show 5

    We bought the Bay Oil Lamp (7" globe) as well another lamp from the unique Signature Series (medium faceted OOAK oil lamp, 7" globe) while visiting Portland. They are home now in SC and look fabulous on our enclosed porch. We can't wait to have friends over and share these beautiful works of art with them!
