Description from the seller

I am offering two iconic oil-fueled storm lanterns, produced in Germany in the mid-20th century. Both pieces are completely original, intact, and retain their rare antique glass.

1) Feuerhand Nr. 275 "Baby" (W. Germany): historic compact storm lantern model. The real highlight of this specimen is its extremely rare original glass globe, intact, bearing the commercial inscription "Cristal de Roche" surmounted by the eagle logo over the globe. Stamped and zinc-coated steel sheet, borosilicate glass with high thermal resistance; vintage condition excellent with a beautiful uniform patina of wear. All components (cap, burner, glass-lifting lever, and handle) are original, present, and functional.
Dimensions: Height (without handle): 19 cm; Height (with handle raised): 30 cm

2) Frowo Nr. 65 "Big Tank" (Made in Germany) large model characterized by an enlarged tank for greater autonomy. Retains its rare factory-original glass with the printed inscription "Frowo Hartglas - Made in Germany / Fabriqué en Allemagne". Stamped steel sheet, internal details and heat-resistant tempered glass, solid and intact construction with a marked and fascinating patina of time that underscores its history. Mechanisms and cap original present.
Dimensions: Height (without handle): 29 cm; Height (with handle raised): 41 cm

Please pay close attention to the photographs.
