This trademark is cast into the glass on a tin-plate wickie hurricane lantern which has only the marking "Made in England" stamped in the top. The trade-mark is an Elephant with saddle, and "V" in a shamrock shape beneath. Just interested to put a name to it as I am restoring it for a friend. Thanks if anyone can help. Steve.
I'd think it should be "Veritas", shouldn't it? When I look at the Veritas items at the lamp reference gallery the logo appears identical, or at least very similar. BR, Martin
Hi Steve, It looks like the brand mark of Falk & Stadelmann Veritas. This was used on kerosene wick lamps and kersone mantle lamps, don´t know if it was used for the pressure items. /Conny
Here is the mark: And I am pretty sure I have seen the elephant on a box og Veritas mantles. Dont wanna search though because its raining. Claus C
Thank you every one . I should have worked that out for myself , so must be getting a bit older . Thanks and we will be in touch again. What a superb Web-site this is . Steve.
No need to go out and get your feet wet, Claus - just look [url=http://0flo.com/index.php?threads/386 for example...
