A French hurricane lantern made by A. & L. Guillouard (ALG) of Nantes, the Modèle No. 2 in the Marine version. The brass top of the fuel tank is embossed with the word MARINE.

What makes this lantern extremely rare is its brass construction. ALG offered its lanterns with brass components at an additional cost in its catalogue. On this example, both the top and the bottom of the fuel tank are brass.

This is a hot-blast lantern. The large 38 mm filler cap is characteristic of the design ALG used from the mid-1930s onwards.

The air tubes have some small rust holes, but the lantern burns very well and can be used with pure kerosene.
