First of all, the chimney is upside down and a smaller is required for this burner. Many U S companies made these table lamps and this is probably a Fostoria Glass product. It was made circa 1895-1910 and would have had a matching in decoration shade. The shade could have been a ball shade that sat on a 5 inch shade holder or a half moon shade that sat on a spider attached to the burner. The eagle burner is a newer replacement but ok with this lamp. RER(Bob)
