gas jets
Stove's fire sources
Gas jets are the small openings or nozzles through which gas flows to be ignited, as in a stove burner or old-fashioned gas lamp.
The term also refers to the flames themselves: The gas jets flickered in the drafty room.
Before electric lighting, gas jets illuminated streets and homes.
