    Hi all
    I found two of those Lawson stoves
    this one is ready, the second is a bit tricky to repair
    I hav'nt many informations on this brand, but an adress : 31, rue de chabrol, Paris 75010
    Production in the 20s/30s
    This is a kerosene stove. The needle is conique so the stove is able to run slowly.
    You only have to screw a little the needle holder.
    the NRV is in the filling cap. The stove is pressurised with a bicyclette pump.

    Different burner, but HERE’s my Lawson twin-burner stove.

    The burners on mine appear to be by the manufacturer EME (George Roux), burner details here.

    In response to my post on the renovation of my Lawson stove Trevor Halliday (RIP) wrote,
    My understanding in conclusion is that Lawson was an American-founded company that had outlets for their products in Europe, France certainly, quite possibly involving local manufacture and out-sourcing, such as the EME burners in my stove.

    "the NRV is in the filling cap. The stove is pressurised with a bicyclette pump." [/QUOTE]

    Lovely stove, and different. Well done.
    I'm curious about the NRV. Does the bicycle pump connector screw directly onto a bicycle valve - either a Woods valve with the short, replaceable rubber tube, or the French valve as used on racing bicycles. Too early for a Schraeder valve, surely ? Or perhaps a standard type NRV with the spring loaded small pip ? Thanks.

    That’s the case on the valve on mine, old Presto bike pump screw connector.

    same here, the two filler caps are differents
    one is as Prescall's, here is mine
    but the principe is the same

    @presscall I noted the link between Lawson, EME and even Ekinox
    I will read the Trevor halliday writing
    All those stoves are an evolution of a Louis Bouyssou patent
    We can find this on Lilor's stoves also
