I have a 13.5 inch ripple gas globe. I am trying to find the retainer band (ring) which holds the lens on the globe. The band has a screw on the bottom to tighten the band. Any help?

contact Dave 970 249-7612 or email marellano56@yahoo.com

A ripple body and a gill are basically the same thing. You need gill body rings

You will need a 13 1/4" ring. Gill bodies came in a range of sizes, ripples only came in 13 1/4". The rings are kinda tough to come by.
