    Hello Sefa
    I don’t know much about the 115 but it seems they were in production from about 1936_7 and probably lasted into the early to mid 1940s. There are only two catalogues in the Reference library for that period, The 115 is in the 1937 catalogue but not in the 1945 catalogue.

    There were a number sold to the Swedish military. Are the three crowns stamped on the cage of your lanterns?

    I can’t make out the printing on the wooden box so I don’t know which country purchased your lanterns.

    Congratulations they are a nice find.

    OK, they are surplus from the Swedish military.

    Is there a date (printed or hand written) on any of the paperwork or packets?
