Got this very nicely aged Feuerhand lantern yesterday. I always liked these old lanterns, specially the ones from this brand, with its very odd "hand on fire" logo. It is a model 323 from circa 1928-32 in a nice used condition. The glass globe isn't original, but is an old replacement with a beautiful, deep red color.
The Feuerhand lanterns were produced by the German company Nier-Feuerhand, founded by Carl Hermann Nier on Jan. 2nd, 1902 in Beierfeld (Saxon).
EDITED in May 6th, 2020: Found an original 1930's Feuerhand-marked clear glass globe to replace the red one.
Thanks for the love:

Hey Mani, thanks for the love. Yes we have the COVID-19 and are all stuck at home down here too. Please stay safe girl, this thing isn't your common flu! Take good care of yourself. xo
Great lantern. Can't believe that I missed it the first time around. Thanks for bringing it back to the top, Eileen!
