    I think this is a P&A Risdon (found some similar online) but not 100%. The burner screws down inside the glass on this one. I have always been told that indicated an older lamp. Also, the part that holds oil has a textured look in all the online ones I have found but it is smooth on the one I have. Any ideas? 20230703_125307.jpg 20230703_125313.jpg 20230703_125319.jpg 20230703_125326.jpg 20230703_125331.jpg

    P&A is the maker of the burner. Plume & Atwood started making lamp burners in the 1860's
    Risdon Mfg took over one of the plants in the late
    1950's and continued making burners till the late 1960's.
