I dont know if it was them or another site that had gimbaled lamps for ships.

A gimbal is a device that makes something stay upright no matter the tilt the it is attached to.

I think it was Vermont lanterns that sold them and I know a guy the bought some and put them in his house along the walls encase the power went out.
Which is quite often in New Hampshire in the winter and for a week or so sometimes.
Here is a gimbal lantern and what was on ships of old off topic but a nice recess so the speak.
Worth.

I get down there a couple times a summer.They have old style appliances but are rather pricey.They do carry high end things.We have the largest Amish community in the country.Kidron is in the middle of Holmes county where this community is.Very hilly but beautiful part of Ohio.
