This kerosene lamp - or oil lamp, as this type is sometimes incorrectly called - is made of solid brass. The glass shade is handmade in selected European glassworks facilities. The lamp is fuelled by kerosene - also known as lamp oil - and can be refilled by unscrewing and removing the brass burner. The brightness of kerosene burners is indicated with lines ('); one line corresponds approximately to the brightness of one small candle.
Our kerosene lamps are not intended for decorative lighting purposes, but rather as a primary light source in spaces lacking modern electrical lighting (such as for example, vacation cottages, porches, and patios).
According to EU directive EN 14059: 2002, traditional round burners, whose dimensions and construction have remained unchanged since the 1870s, no longer meet the safety requirements to protect children under the age of three from danger. Therefore, they must not be used for decorative purposes, but only as functional lighting. Should our lamps - contrary to our intentions - be used for decorative lighting purposes, there is a risk that children under the age of three may be exposed to life-threatening lung injuries after sucking on the wick or drinking the lamp oil. IF LAMP OIL IS SWALLOWED, do not induce vomiting. Contact the Poison Control Center or a doctor immediately!
Sekelskifte´s lighting range is CE-marked and approved by EU-standard but not UL-certified. We cannot take responsibility for, or deliver lighting outside the EU.
