    First real post here.
    Long story short, a recent move and claim filed later the original chimney to one of my Plume and Atwood lamps broke. I've spent a bit of time researching, and I came up with but one detail: this chimney came with some other Plume and Atwood victor lamps.
    To keep the lamp working, I have a macbeth 54 that works well with it, but just doesn't have the same effect.
    Problem is, I'm still having trouble finding a similar replacement or any other details that could help. So I'm asking here to see if someone knowledgeable could provide me with some detail I couldn't find.
    I've attached a photo of measurements and chimney as close as I can get without breaking it any more. I can provide some other photos if needed.

    Thanks

    Edit: Nevermind. Had found one I thought similar but the fitter size was wrong...... On further searching, not finding any with the 1 5/16" base size :(

    How significant was the size difference?

    Here is the chimney page I was looking at. Seems to have the best selection of the companies I looked at. Note: I have no affiliation with this company. Just found them trying to search for the right chimney.

    Hmm, the second one is very close, is a wee tall however. But it lacks that strange distortion/stroke effect the original has(not caused by the cracks). Thanks for the suggestion, I may consider buying.

    Since finding another identical chimney will be difficult, what may be some chimney recommendations to keep the lamp as "authentic" as possible?
