What is a Grease Lamp? Long before electric lights, people relied on grease lamps for illumination. Made from everyday materials like glass jars, stone, pottery, or tin, these small oil-burning lamps use animal fat, lard, or grease as fuel. Their genius was in their simplicity-wick, fuel, flame-and that tradition lives on in our mason jar grease lamp.
"Waste Not Want Not" my grandma would say!
