Vintage Valor 525-T Paraffin Kerosene Oil Heater Made in England This is a black stand-alone paraffin oil heater, with a cylindrical chimney opening to a circular kerosene tank and flame output. This is a Valor 525-T which was made in England. Before the advent of electric battery power, paraffin oil was the most common fuel for lamps and portable lanterns. It is still used to some extent for portable lamps and stoves, most often by campers or in developing countries. Nowadays, it will be appreciated much more for its truly original decorative potential than for its original function.  Condition: Exactly as pictured. The heater is in overall great condition (it may show traces of rust, wear and oxidation points consistent to age). The front panel glass is broken (photos 2 and 15). Handle fittings are damaged (photos 12 and 13). No leaks or fissures in the fuel tank. - Please see all pictures for further details. - The item will be shipped via registered mail. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please feel free to visit my Store to find more items you may love! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
