Old-fashioned Kerosene Lamps
Many log homes are just like traditional homes except made out of logs; they have all the same amenities and luxuries (and then some). But lots of people like to build rustic mountain cabins out in remote locations too. When you build “off the grid,” you don’t have access to power lines, so you either need to create your own power (generators are one way, but solar panels are increasingly popular) or do without. Most people have some means for power, but if you want to save on what you need to generate, you could do some of your lighting in the old fashioned way: kerosene.
Kerosene lamps work a lot like the oil lamps you’ve probably seen at some people’s homes, burning kerosene to create a flame. No electricity is required. This “Rio Grande” ceiling lamp is designed in a rustic style to remind visitors of centuries past. It’s available from Daniel Joseph for $261.
