<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 116473, member: 44&quot;]I think your lamp with the Sherwood wedge burner is a ship&#039;s Compass Binnacle oil lamp such as the following ones. Now the following lamps have the same overall appearance as yours, but are longer with the cylinder having a hinged door window. The bottom part of the cylinder with the window may be missing from yours. With all hohesty, I know nothing about these lamps as to how they work.</p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Brass-Ships-Compass-Binnacle-Oil-Lamp-Nautical-Maritime-Marine-Boat-/222011538494?hash=item33b0eb3c3e:g:J74AAOSwfZ1Watyh" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Brass-Ships-Compass-Binnacle-Oil-Lamp-Nautical-Maritime-Marine-Boat-/222011538494?hash=item33b0eb3c3e:g:J74AAOSwfZ1Watyh" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Brass-Ships-Compass-Binnacle-Oil-Lamp-Nautical-Maritime-Marine-Boat-/222011538494?hash=item33b0eb3c3e:g:J74AAOSwfZ1Watyh</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://auction.catawiki.com/kavels/2212607-nautical-brass-ship-s-binnacle-oil-lamp" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://auction.catawiki.com/kavels/2212607-nautical-brass-ship-s-binnacle-oil-lamp" rel="nofollow">http://auction.catawiki.com/kavels/2212607-nautical-brass-ship-s-binnacle-oil-lamp</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s a thread on the International Guild of Lamp Researchers forum about a binnacle oil lamp made by Sherwood of Birmingham </p><p><a href="http://lampguild.org/QandApage/archives/Q0005606.php" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://lampguild.org/QandApage/archives/Q0005606.php" rel="nofollow">http://lampguild.org/QandApage/archives/Q0005606.php</a></p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
