Christer, I just order some peerless mantles at your advice. I’m amazed to see a 10 or 14 line Cosmos wick burner lamp right in the middle of...
OK Michel I see, I know of the Manufrance catalogues and that it was some kind of mail-order company but I suppose it still was a manufacturing...
Michel, An impressive radiator you have there! I have a Gaz Bleu Petrole radiator that is shown in a “Pinchard” catalogue I have. This is perhaps...
Hi Michel, Nice to see it running :thumbup: ; the Unic lamps make a great light in my experience. As for the other issue I believe there could...
Michel, Yes I know of this 1952 catalogue sheet but it is possible that the drawings of this catalogue are from an earlier period catalogue, to...
Hi Michel, a nice addition to your Unic lamp collection! I believe the tank on your Unic No.6 is identical to the one of most of the No. 9 and...

Hi Christer, That is a good looking crown princess lamp you have there :thumbup: (crown princess of Sweden is Victoria). Nice to see it again!...
Hi Michel, You got it on page two, under "The Lamp Reference Gallery / France" :) ! /Conny

Hi Michel, A fantastic and impressive hollow wire lamp :thumbup: . As you say, a typical Bre burner. /Conny
