AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A splendid collector's lot consisting of two iconic petrol-powered storm lanterns, produced in Germany in the middle of the 20th century. Both pieces are completely original, intact, and retain their rare period glass.
1. Feuerhand No. 275 "Baby" (W. Germany): Historic compact storm lantern model. The true strength of this exemplar is its extremely rare original glass globe, intact, bearing the commercial engraving "Cristal de Roche" surmounted by the eagle logo above the world. • Material: stamped and zinc-plated steel sheet, high-thermal-resistance borosilicate glass. Excellent vintage condition with a beautiful, evenly aged patina. All components (cap, burner, glass-lift lever, and handle) are original, present, and functional. • Dimensions: Height (without handle): 19 cm, Height (with handle raised): 30 cm
2. Frowo No. 65 "Big Tank" (Made in Germany) Large model characterized by the enlarged tank for greater autonomy. It preserves its rare factory-original glass with the printed inscription "Frowo Hartglas - Made in Germany / Fabriqué en Allemagne". Material: stamped steel sheet, internal fittings and heat-resistant tempered glass. Solid and intact construction with a marked and fascinating patina of time that underscores its history. Mechanisms and cap are present. • Dimensions: Height (without handle): 29 cm, Height (with handle raised): 41 cm
