Copper is a beautiful, versatile metal. And of course one of its uses is for copper oil lamps for outdoor use.

These copper oil lamps, which burn oil using fiberglass wicks, come in Blue Verde, Smooth Copper, or Beaten Copper finishes.

People have been using copper for 10,000 years, and copper smelting seems to have developed independently in several places around the world. And, of course, it was the mixing of copper with zinc to make brass, and copper with tin to make bronze, which led to the “Bronze age.”

But let’s talk about copper oil lamps. Copper lamps — depending on their size — can burn from 8 hours to 12 hours, even up to 48 hours.

They make a perfect accent piece for porches and decks, therefore, when you’re entertaining and want a little style to light up the evening!

It’s all about mood lighting. Forget about those bush-league lava lamps! Copper oil lamps provide a taste of style and luxury that everyone can appreciate. The gleam of copper is beautiful on its own, but beaten copper, or Blue Verde copper lamps have their place as well in the elegant home.

Elegant your home may be…the dining room in particular. But there’s nothing quite like cocktails by moonlight on an open-air porch, with the strategic lights from Copper copper oil lamps enhancing the moonlight and the ambiance.
