    A few more Photos.......
    I was uncertain if it was a pressure lamp or not but after I opened the tank it revealed all.

    Hi Astro,

    It appears to be a simple center draft wick style burner. It's missing the chimney and flame spreader and part of the wick raiser mechanism appears to be missing too.

    I know it's been a long time, but do you still have this lamp?

    Interesting mob are Chance Bros and Co of Birmingham.
    Around in 1880. Very prominent in their field(s) in 1884.

    A very historic lamp.
