Aladdin lamps were made in the USA until 1963 (by Bradley & Hubbard, Meriden, CT), after which brass lamps were imported from England. Only the glass lamps continued to be made in the USA. Since 1977 the Aladdin burners have been manufactured in Hong Kong while the fonts are made in the USA and England. Chimneys, wicks and mantles are made in other countries today.

The early lamps (Models 1 through 12) were made primarily of brass and nickel plated. Models 1-12 are center-draft lamps. Subsequent models use side draft burners which cannot be used in the earlier lamps. The side-draft burner permitted the company to make glass fonts and beginning in the 1930s glass lamps were made in many attractive colors and patterns.

The model of each lamp is designated on the wick raising knob (except Models 1-4). Models changed as improvements were made due to new patents, or changes in the operating mechanism. Many of the models look very similar in outer appearance. Some parts are interchangeable while many are not.

Aladdin lamps were also manufactured in England, Australia and Brazil:

England Sales were established in England in 1919, importing directly from the USA. Manufacturing of the following models began there in 1933.  Today Aladdin UK imports lamps and burners from Hong Kong.
