    I belive this is a Standard Model 175 donut. It is unbranded apart from a plate with the number 175 but I was able to identify it from Terry Marsh's website. Perhaps it was intended to be rebranded and sold by a British retailer.

    The glass I think is original. Shame it has a bit of a crack in it.

    Some parts of it remind me of a Blanchard, for example the brass mantle holder, the nozzle and the burner attachment for the fuel pipe.

    Yes a Standard for sure. These were sold in the UK although I have no yet found out who was selling them. I know of maybe half a dozen that have been found here and I have owned at least two. Neither in near as nice condition as this one though and both were missing the globe. Great to see one fettled and running again. ::Neil::

    As you can see I have some work to do before I can have one that complete as it will run again.
    If you miss any part, James, just let me know, I might have two. I have no plan to keep them both, one will be canibalized.
    Interesting to see the original globe, now I know what to serch for. That will be a hard piece to find.

    Hi Bo,

    The only part I don't have is the bolt that connects the hanging loop to the chimney, as I had to cut through it to get the lamp apart. However it is an easily substituted part so I am not too worried. If a reflector is up for grabs I might be interested as mine is pretty rotten.

    James.

    Hello, Bo.

    Do you still have some parts? I just bought one of these. It was used as a base for an electric lamp and I expect I will need some or many parts, starting with the reflector.
