"Rak" kerosene lamp in black sheet metal with brass details. Including a week. Perfect for some extra light on the balcony or inside. Ø 8 x H 25 cm NOTE! The burn tube may need to be adjusted to stay straight. When the glass is straight, use the metal clips on the burner to stabilize. Fill the lamp with about 2/3 lamp oil and let the wick soak for 20-30 minutes before the lamp lights up to get a nice flame. Kerosene lamps were the most common type of lamp in Sweden from the end of the 19th century and a bit into the 20th century, when electric light became common. Our kerosene lamps are light sources developed for the purpose of illuminating places where there is no electricity. Such as on smaller boats, in holiday homes and on balconies. Kerosene lamps can also come into use in the event of a power failure as they provide a very good light. (Read the enclosed operating instructions before using the lamp)
