    Bought it for the globes as they can be used on Coleman and Tilley table lamps.
    When they arrived I found that the lamps are branded as Cadac (South African gas lamp, stove and paraffin blow torch manufacturer).
    They have a lower screw on ceramic mantle holder for a string tie mantle which is much more cost effective compared to a preformed Veritas mantle.

    Interesting design. What is the central tank for? Can it be rotated so it can be used as a hanging lamp (similar to hollow wire)?
