    I have this lamp made from brass. The bottom unscrews and it has what looks like some type of an adjustment on the top. When I was a youngster I remember seeing a lamp that you would add some type of powder in the bottom half and then you add water in the top. This would make a flambe gas. I really would like to know more about this lamp.

      Carbide lamp. Most often seen on the antique scene as miner's helmet lamps. Ma me're est de Logansport. Bienvenue a' CyberAsylum, aka CW
