6”’ Cotton round burner wick with good absorption capacity.

Standard dimensions for kerosene lamps were established in the mid-19th century and were based on the size of the kerosene burner. Measurements are given in lines and line measurements are counted in 1/12 inch. Thus, 1 line equals 1/12″ (inch). The line number is determined in proportion to the brightness of the lamp and the higher the line number the higher the luminous intensity.

The kerosene lamp is equipped with a round burner whose design is based on the patent of the Swiss Aimé Argand, where the richly perforated gallery and the airy design of the wick cone allow an abundant supply of oxygen that provides a very efficient combustion that results in a 6-15 times stronger brightness compared to lace wick burners.
