Product Overview
This is a genuine architectural salvage piece from a late 19th-century gas lighting system. Originally designed as a wall-mounted supply arm, it features a beautiful twisted-spiral shaft and an integrated, highly ornate gas shut-off valve. The valve is topped with a decorative "key" handle, once used to regulate the flow of natural gas to a wall sconce or lamp.
Whether you are restoring a historic home to its original glory or looking for authentic mechanical parts for a custom Steampunk lighting project, this arm offers the heavy-duty construction and intricate detail that modern reproductions lack.
Key Features
- Intricate Detail: Features a textured, twisted-rope design on the main supply pipe and floral/geometric embossing on the valve body.
- Original Hardware: Includes the articulated gas petcock/key handle.
- Authentic Patina: Boasts a deep, uncleaned "found" patina that highlights over 100 years of age.
- Versatile Salvage: Excellent for repurposing into industrial-style electric lamps, towel racks, or decorative wall hooks.
