Love this candy-striped old-style lamp on a shop near Partick Station. It looks like either a replica or a repurposed gas lamp. You can tell the design is that of a gas lamp because of the vent on the top, which was needed to provide a flow of air (and so oxygen) to the mantle.

I wrote a steampunk ish Isekai novel called the Clockwork Apprentice - 90% hand written but I was stuck on the ending so I had Claude help out with the last few chapters. I can now focus on other works https://clockwork-apprentice.puter.site/ #amwritingfantasy #fantasy #fantasynovel #gaslamp

Gas mantles get very hot.

There are still British Gas employees whose job it is to light Londons remaining 200-odd working gas lamps. Imagine your job title is literally serial gaslighter.

(This gas lamp in Carting Lane, London was placed over a sewer in Victorian times to encourage stagnant gas to rise and escape through the vent.
It’s the only one left which is still working.) #gaslight #gaslamp #london #sewers #history #britishgas

In addition, if you look very carefully at the right hand side, just below the glazed section, you can see the small tap which would have been turned on to let the gas flow through to the mantle before it was lit. This would have been done each night by one of Glasgow's army of leeries or lamplighters. They'd then return in the morning to turn off the tap, so extinguishing the flame.

A former gas lamp (now converted to an electric one) on North Gate to Victoria Park in the west of Glasgow. It's one of a pair created, along with the rest of the gate, in 1887, by Walter MacFarlane's Saracen Foundry. You can tell it was originally a gas lamp because it has an open base and a vented cap at the top (needed to allow oxygen in to feed the flame).

Love this old gas lamp at the entrance to Royal Exchange Court in central Glasgow.

TALL & DARK by Suzannah Rowntree is currently free in Kindle over at the Zon. It's a gaslamp 1890ish caper novel with alternative fantasy creatures who've taken over the royal houses of Europe. Our heroine needs more money than her governess job can provide, but there are risks with her talent of mediumship and. . .

And you should take a look. It was LEVERAGE in petticoats, and delightful! #bookstodon @bookstodon #Gaslamp #fantasy #CaperNovel

Provost's Lamp above the entrance to a tenement on Prince Edward Street in the Queen's Park area of Glasgow. Designed by William Sugg and Co, it looks like this may have originally been lit by gas rather than electricity.
