      I's a Bradley & Hubbard lamp from the 1870's. I'm not sure of the exact name since I am vacationing and I don't have my ref. Books but Shield comes to mind. The burner should unscrew unless someone has welded it in and that would have been unwise since you have to be able to fill it and replace the wick. The collar should be a wide one that fits over the font but it is threaded and should allow for the burner to be removed. Over the years and after a lot of use, it sometimes gets stuck and the only way to get it off is to take pliers and remove it physically piece by piece. It destroys the burner but at least you can replace it. Nice lamp. Bob
