Dears, Please find below quite unusual lamp. It is marked on the found EFAR 608 300cp and Petromax 826. Steel frame, pump and green enameled hood....
I agree, a good condition red top looks better INHO :) and indeed the silver one may be replacement, as that would be quite weird to install only...
This example with silver hood to be found on Polish forum (Lampy Ciśnieniowe) looks more convincing. Might be interesting for some, @Nils...
Thank you Nils. Me too - only red hats and this one looks a bit suspicious.
I understand that this lamp was manufactured in Portugal, correct? Were Geniols manufactured in China anytime at all like Petromax?
