Our kerosene lamps are not intended for decorative lighting purposes, but only as a primary light source in spaces lacking modern electrical lighting (such as, for example, holiday cottages, porches and patios).

According to EU directive EN 14059: 2002, traditional round burners, whose dimensions and construction have been the same since the 1870s, no longer meet the safety requirements that should be set to protect children under the age of three from danger, so they must not be used for decorative purposes, but only as functional lighting. Should our lamps - contrary to our intentions - be used for decorative purposes, there is a risk that children under the age of three, by sucking on the wick or drinking from the kerosene, are exposed to life-threatening lung injuries. IF INGESTION OF KEROSENE: Do not induce vomiting. Contact the Poison Information Center or doctor immediately!
