    I'm trying to find replacement parts for old English oil table lamps that my grandmother gave to me. I'm willing to convert the fitter to American standard if I need to. The original lamps are oil (parafin) table lamps with brass and cut-glass bases. The original globes, which are now broken, are approximately: fitter: 3.75 inches (I don't know what the metric equivalent is), height 7", width at top 7". The originals were etched, fluted, and colored glass. I would like to find a replacement...either an antique or a reproduction. Thanks in advance for your help. Patricia (in Boston) pohern@tiac.net
