    Hi all,

    I came across this lamp today at a museum. I don’t have any official info on it yet, a few people have said the top part is a Gloria.

    Yes, it’s would be an Australian Gloria table lamp, made using the Gloria No. 20 hollow wire burner, modified so that the burner and feed tubing can sit on a pressure lamp tank. Gloria in Australia did a lot of these conversion well into the late 1930s.

    Check out Gloria in the Reference Gallery.

    Edit: The closest example in the Reference Gallery is the one of @Graham P here: Gloria Model AE




    Cheers
