Re: antique miners oil lamp/lantern

I’m still early in searching but it might be E. Thomas and Williams (I think what you’re seeing as an A is a triangle) and could be a Marsaut style miners safety lamp. I think the E stands for Evan. Yours might be known as a Cambrian.

I think this Facebook page might also interest you, there’s contact info there as well. https://www.facebook.com/EthomasandWilliamsLtd/
Here’s what I believe the crown with feathers mark is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_of_Wales%27s_feathers
