The great senior in my study

The first vintage lantern I ever owned was a BR49.

It had a brown top hood attached, but I learned that it was actually a lantern with a hood similar to that of the X359.

Since then, I've changed it to my preferred black hood and am still using it.
(I've kept the brown hood.)




I lit it in my study for the first time in a long time.











I love the BR49 so I decided to try making a miniature of it.













If you take good care of a lantern for a long time, it will give birth to babies.







Thank you.

 

Excellent I just love your BR49 and baby BR49.
Top job mate.

 

Nice job !

 

@Buggerlugs

Thank you.

Your BR49 is also very nice.
Your BR49 reminded me of the time I wanted a plated BR49 but gave up.

Tilly's lantern is elegant.



@Sellig33

Thank you.

If this lit up it would be perfect, but please assume that it can't light up since it's still a baby.

 

@JEFF JOHNSON

thank you.

 

We just love that tiny BR49.!

 

@Sammi Jane

Thank you.
Even now, the little BR49 is hanging on to the adult BR49.

 

Both are simply amazing.

 

@Alexandre Freddi

Thank you.
I like this lantern too.

 

What a wee cutie @Camp numao.

 

@Jean J

Thank you.
I made this to kill time.

I also made a kerosene stove out of plastic rods and wire.

 

Wow that is amazing @Jean J
