    Glass bottle for radiant paraffin heater. Fill it up, turn up over and fit it into the heater, fuel then runs out under vacuum release to feed the heater wick.

    That bottle belongs to a radiant paraffin heater, something like a "Fyrside" "Aladdin" "Valor" "or "Sankey" but they're all much of a muchness. Some heaters use a metal reservoir, like my own Sankey, and others use a glass bottle.
    The valve in the lid is for the drip feed system to feed the wick inside the shell burner. In use, the bottle stands upside down so that the valve is at the bottom.
    A lot people had nasty accidents with the glass reservoir types, by trying to be clever and swapping the bottles with the burner still alight, coming into contact with hot parts in the heater, and dropping the bottle, causing it to smash and spill paraffin all over the place. The heaters weren't inherently dangerous, just clueless and careless users.
    The heat from the fire was very good, and much like sitting in front of a real fire - being a radiant heater, you could feel the warmth across the room. I have a Sankey radiant heater, waiting to be restored.
    Nice find, and quite common for owners to keep one or two spare bottles of paraffin for a quick change over when the fire went out - That was the downfall of these heaters.
    Likely to date from between 1930 and 1970 - They were in production in one form or another for a long time - that's how good they were. All you need now is to find a heater to use it in! 🙋🔥

    I used to stink of coal and paraffin when i used to go to school in the early 70s.
    When I'd get home,my job was to clean out the coal fire grate and prepare the kindling for the evening fire.
    My sister's job was to peel the spuds and prepare the table for the evening meal before Mum arrived home from her work as a Docker .
