You are sure to be fully satisfied with their durable brass construction. You get the durability you are looking for in a year 2000 product at affordable prices and the elegance deserving of the interior of your home. Our lanterns always give you the most for your money and the quality you are looking for. Long before the invention of electricity, oil lamps lit American homes for more than a century. As we enter the year 2001, many people think that this American tradition may again become the only reliable and safe source of home lighting.
Nobody really knows.
But the conclusion is obvious. We are told that it is prudent to prepare for three weeks of power outage. Vermont saw such an outage from a severe ice storm during the winter of 1998. If you are one of those millions of Americans now planning for alternative lighting, then we strongly recommend that you purchase a minimum of four or more for your home. Lamp oil , liquid paraffin, kerosene, and citronella oil are currently readily available fuels, sold almost anywhere in the United States, which can be safely burned in our lamps.
