Hi I need som help how old this iteem is. I found it at a fleemarket. I understand that i cant ask for value here I think its never been used. Thanks
Welcome aboard! That lantern is well worth restoring and the link below shows the relevant pages on this website. 1082 (inc Høvik)
Firstly welcome to the forum. Your HV1082 is the second variation that they made and is most likely from the second half of the 1950s. I'm not sure how long they kept producing this model, but I don't expect it to be later than this. Nice to see it with the original glass. It has been used though as can be seen from the mantle. A lot of these lanterns were bought by the military, so it is possible they lit it to make sure it worked then it went into storage.
