Jar Lamp Ambiance using lamps available from Lehmans.com

Above, the Hexagonal Table Lamp casts beautiful shadows and reflections in casual arrangements. Below, the Little Cabin Lamp with its 1/2" wide, flat wick provides more serious lighting.

The next set of pictures shows small candle holders in which the little 2" Camp Lamp has been substituted for paraffin candles.

This can be desirable for various reasons:
--No petroleum fumes for people who are sensitive to them

--No melted wax mess to clean out of a holder

--No melting wax running from a pierced holder such as in

   the two pictures above.

--The certainty that the flame will not cause the holder to

   break or otherwise be damaged
