Before the days of kerosene and electric light, a nightlight was a practical object used to move between dark rooms. It was also used as a bedside lamp, just as its name suggests.

Kerosene lamp Skeppsholmen, a larger version of the popular Koholmen. The oil housing is in mouth-blown clear glass. The original Koholmen model was already in the Karlskrona lamp factory’s range at the end of the 19th century, but reached a wider audience in the 1950s. The brightness of a 10”’ round burner corresponds approximately to the brightness of ten candles.

The kerosene lamp is equipped with a round burner whose design is based on the patent of the Swiss Aimé Argand, where the richly perforated gallery and the airy design of the wick cone allow an abundant supply of oxygen that provides a very efficient combustion that results in a 6-15 times stronger brightness compared to lace wick burners.
