A Vintage Paraffin Greenhouse Heater, Attributed to Parasene - This vintage portable paraffin greenhouse heater is attributed to Parasene, closely resembling the Superwarm series. The unit features a circular fuel tank base finished in green paint, which supports a central galvanised metal chimney section. Mounted at the top is a wide, rectangular heat diffuser with numerous perforated ventilation slots designed to distribute warmth. The heater is equipped with a screw-top filler cap and a knurled wick adjustment knob. A small label is present on the side of the tank, although the lettering is not clearly legible. Items of this type were common in mid-20th-century British horticulture for frost protection.
