Most traditional flat-wick oil lamps have a font or fount, collar, burner, wick, wick raiser, chimney seat or gallery, and glass chimney.<\/strong> A lamp may also have a filler cap, pedestal, shade holder, and outer glass shade. Center-draft and mantle lamps add model-specific parts such as inner and outer wick tubes, a flame spreader, a larger gallery, and a mantle.<\/p>\n

That list is useful for naming a missing piece. It is not a shopping list. Parts that look alike can have different threads, seat diameters, wick paths, chimney fitters, and airflow requirements. Identify the lamp family and model, then measure the connection between parts rather than relying on appearance.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The map starts at the fuel reservoir and moves upward. Not every lamp uses every item. If a clear tube sits directly over the flame, it is usually the chimney. A wider decorative glass piece around it is usually an outer shade. The fuel-holding glass body below the burner is the font, and the metal adapter fixed to its opening is the collar.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The font stores fuel. The wick reaches into that fuel and carries it upward. At the burner, the exposed fuel vapor supports the flame. The wick raiser changes how much wick is exposed, while the burner and chimney shape the air moving to and away from the flame.<\/p>\n

That basic chain is visible in the Smithsonian collection of oil-wick cap lamps<\/a>. Their forms differ from household table lamps, but the records still show the relationship between a fuel font, a wick, and the point of combustion.<\/p>\n

A chimney is not merely a transparent guard. Its geometry affects draft. The Corning Museum of Glass describes the Argand lamp<\/a> as a tubular-wick lamp in which the chimney increases draft while air also reaches the inside of the wick.<\/p>\n

Changing one part can affect the rest. A chimney with the right base diameter but the wrong height may alter airflow. A wick that enters a slot may still be the wrong thickness. A burner that screws into a collar may not provide the required chimney seat.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

A common household kerosene or lamp-oil table lamp uses a flat wick. Its burner usually screws into a collar on the font. A small geared shaft moves the wick through a rectangular tube. Prongs, a chimney seat, or a separate gallery support the glass above the flame.<\/p>\n

The Smithsonian record for a cast iron and glass kerosene lamp<\/a> identifies a glass font, metal collar, flat-wick burner, and the attachment point for a missing chimney and shade. The names are tied to real interfaces, not only a catalog illustration.<\/p>\n

  1. Font and collar:<\/strong> the reservoir and its metal interface. A collar may be fixed to glass, so do not assume it should twist off.<\/li>
  2. Burner and wick mechanism:<\/strong> the wick tube, air openings, and raising mechanism. The knob may provide a maker or model clue.<\/li>
  3. Chimney support:<\/strong> prongs, a gallery, or a circular seat. Record how the chimney is retained.<\/li>
  4. Optional shade support:<\/strong> a ring, tripod, or crown that carries a wider shade outside the chimney.<\/li><\/ol>\n

    Do not force a burner that starts on a thread but tightens unevenly. Old threads may use a pattern or diameter that a modern part only appears to match.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    Center-draft lamps need their own parts map. They often use a circular wick with air moving around and through the center of the burner. Some heat a mantle, which produces the visible light. The burner can include an inner wick tube, outer wick tube, air distributor, flame spreader, gallery, and a model-specific raising mechanism.<\/p>\n

    Aladdin’s current lamp anatomy reference<\/a> names these components for its own system. It explains that the gallery holds the chimney and mantle, while the flame spreader and wick tubes manage air around the circular wick. Those names are useful, but they are not a universal oil-lamp standard.<\/p>\n

    A manufacturer’s exploded diagram is more reliable than a generic dimension chart. The Aladdin Model 21C exploded view<\/a> ties the chimney, gallery, flame spreader, wick, and raiser to named models. Its parts and adaptability page<\/a> also shows that some components cross models while others do not.<\/p>\n

    If a burner uses a mantle or tubular wick, begin with the maker and model. A custom glass manufacturer can review a chimney or shade drawing, but it cannot certify a metal burner conversion from photographs alone.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
