    Same model as several others posted . From circa mid - 1930’s from what I have read here.
    In used condition very dirty when I got it .

    It cleaned up nicely , tried not to over polish . Had to work a bit with the burner which was choked with carbon. All components are Svea marked and look original . No spirit can but has windshield and spanner.

    Only required a new burner washer and it fired up .

    On closer inspection I found a somewhat novel spelling of the country of manufacture . Looks like a mix of «Sweden» and «Sverige» . Makes it a bit more special i think :content:

    @Lighthouse
    Thanks . I saw your stove in the gallery with the unused components . Your stove had brass feet, mine are steel by the look of them .

    Great stove @A A C- these must have been quite something in their day with that smart case. Funny how Svea 'outdoor' stoves were seemingly never particularly popular until the No.123 gained popularity overseas in the 50s.

    My Radius No.17 was in a similar state when I got it- one of the few stoves I have properly polished. Now 15 years later you wouldn't know!

    The spanner is a mystery, how on earth could that error have been made given that surely the whole inscription was stamped at once?

    A very nice stove. And a very stylish case.
    You could definitely show off with this set at a picnic.
    If you hadn't mentioned the spelling on the key, I probably would have missed this interesting detail.
