Coast Monthly, a local magazine published by the Galveston Daily News, celebrated the unique items found at Antiques on 23rd by "Shining a light" on our rare Betty lamp. Also called a rabbi or Aladdin lamp, it uses whale oil to provide light. This relic of the past provides fascinating insight to the daily lives of people in the 1800s- from why they chose whale oil to how they decorated their homes.
