Antique Hubert Joris Miner’s Lamp (ca. 1900–1910) – Val St. Lambert Glass – Belgian Safety Lamp
Antique miner's lamp from around 1900, attributed to Hubert Joris (Joris Lampe, Belgium), with its original Val St. Lambert D.S.4 glass. Fully working: the wick holder raises smoothly.
According to collectors and known references, this type is believed to be a Master Hewer's Lamp ("Meesterhouwerslamp") by Hubert Joris, comparable in design and quality to early Wolf mining lamps.
Usable as a small oil lamp, or displayed decoratively. Also of interest to mining-lamp collectors as an unused piece.
