AN OLD PAIR OF MYSTERY LAMPS MADE OF TIN CONSTRUCTION

Here we have 2 mystery lamps made of a tin construction. As seen from the pictures provided, they are 3-sided lamps, one being Red and one being Blue. Would seem to be possibly Port & Starboard old colours. Were they maybe at one time signal lamps? They are an interesting pair of lamps which make distinctive display pieces. The items are in good condition all round and are an unusual find !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
