This book is addressed to collectors, dealers, and hobbyists. It is hoped that in these pages they will find interesting and valuable information about Fairy Lamps. The book was written for three reasons. First because of the increased demand among collectors and the trade for these useful and lovely candlelit lamps. Secondly because there is very little readily available data on the subject. And finally, because the customs and way of life of the past exert a continual fascination in our own times.
