@Cherrill Oh thats interesting Cherrill, these are not lanterns but paraffin blow lamps, used for soldering and braising. I thought they would make an interesting subject for a camera club competition, and have borrowed them from my parents house. If memory serves me right, I think they have one or two brass lamps as well.
Ah yes I had seen those. They are in beautiful condition. Someone keeps their brass well! :-) I have quite a collection of Tilley lamp paraphernalia and have written a book for a dissertation I did. Of recent years I'm afraid they are all in the loft. I wonder if your parent have any Tilley objects?

I posted my first attempts at photographing them the other day on here. If you click on the links below it should take you to the posts.

This is my second reply, Cherrill, one of the first links was wrong.
