Can somebody help me identify this lamp. Have never seen one that is ornate as this one is. Do not believe it is from the states so I ask here. Thanks in advance
Hi Sean, @Seansmithwfd This is most likely a lamp from the French manufacturer Bardeau & Gosse, around mid to late 1920,s. The burner unit is a typical Bardeau & Gosse burner, but the lamp is unknown to me and is not like the Bardeau & Gosse lamps known among collectors or in any paperwork. A built in manometer is very odd and unusual and I can´t see any pump connection in your pictures! A very nice decorated font. /Conny
Is that filler cap a ball non return and missing the air stem? There has to be some way to lift the fuel up to the burner. Not a lamp I know either but that fount has to be French surely and Bardeau most likely as Conny says. ::Neil::
