Belgian 30'''; Dresden-Empress-Liberty; Radiant 5; P&A Banner #2 & Plumwood chimney. Also for the Young's Court 30''' Center Draught lamp.
One of the finest "white light" lamps ever made was the "Belgian." They were expensive lamps, however, so the "big three" of B&H, P&A and Miller produced their more affordable versions of the Belgian as close to the original as possible. These lamps were perhaps the culmination of center draft lamp design, using a thick 1 1/2" circular wick to produce an incredible amount of nice, white light, very close to the light output of a full sized store lamp, but with 1/3rd the fuel consumption. To produce that light, however, the bulge had to be in the perfect location to produce a nice, tight "tulip" ball, as shown in pictures.
Note the position of the flame spreader at the base of the bulge, as shown on my Miller Dresden. The fit is the same on B&H Radiant #5's and P&A Plumwood lamps. The chimney is 12 1/2" tall to fit through ball shades and large dome shades, and provides the proper draft for odor-free burning.
Flame is a full "tulip" flame on Alex Muzyka's Belgian.
