Patterson & Co Model B7 Lamp

Hello, wonder if anyone can help. I have a Patterson Model B7 lamp which I am trying to identify any missing parts and its age.

The base/oil reservoir, when screwed to the main body leaves a 5mm gap, which indicates either something is missing in between or that the base does not match the body. There is no plate on the chimney.

The number marked on top brass rim above the glass is 47, the number marked on the brass body is 225.

Thank you very much in advance of any help.

Kind regards

Brian Howard

Re: Patterson & Co Model B7 Lamp

I assume that it has a glass and glass retaining ring? If so, could it be that the glass is the wrong size (too long)?
