The dating of a kerosene lamp by it's burner may be a dead end. Seems it was a common practice to update burners in older lamps to keep up with advances made. My knowledge is limited in this area.

The glass part of your lamp is very nice and seems to compare favorably in technique with the Egermann example you provide.
