Vintage Model T Car Lamp – Purple Lens, Original Bracket

This vintage Model T kerosene lamp is a solid piece of early automotive history. Made from iron, it has a rugged, industrial build that’s held up over time. Designed for use on early Ford vehicles, it features the original mounting bracket and a classic utilitarian look. The lamp has clear signs of age and wear, giving it a genuine salvaged feel. The bottom portion is missing, and the lens has turned a natural purple color due to long-term sun exposure — a known result of early glass manufacturing techniques.

This piece is ideal for collectors of antique car parts, or as a display item for vintage decor projects. It’s an honest example of what roadside lighting looked like in the early 1900s, preserved in the condition it was found.

Features:

• Iron body with original mounting bracket
• Naturally sun-purpled lens (originally clear)
• Industrial look with patina from decades of use
• Missing bottom — great for display or parts
