During the Victorian era, before the widespread adoption of gas and electric lighting, people primarily relied on candles, oil lamps, and coal for illumination and heating. Tallow candles made from animal fat were common, while oil lamps used whale oil or kerosene for light. Additionally, coal was the primary source of energy for heating homes and cooking, with coal fires being a central feature in many households. These methods were often less efficient and more hazardous than later technologies.
