Hi ! Facinating looking lamp / stove /heater. Tell me the bar going across the middle of the bowl fire is this really a trivit rack , I can't see from pics. if the bar has deapth to it ie able to rest a kettle onto it ? But what a great looking find. Do we stand a chance of a few more photo's from higher looking down and tank moved apart from cast frame work ! Which country is this from ? ...mick
Ian Marson has/had one of these - or something damned like it - but in a beautiful green enamel. I'm no great lover of most things Gallic but this was something else - lovely. Almost certainly it had a trivet for a kettle, coffee maker or whatever...
You can use a kettle on the bar @ Andreas, die wollen noch ein Paar Bilder sehen @ Andreas,they need some pictures more
Here is a photo showing exactly the same model. I got it many years ago from my late friend in France, Philippe Touillet. I cleaned up this one just a few days ago.
