Good chance she is the business owner. Few workers last for a few months at any one job due to minimum wages and no benefits. There is no such thing as full time honest jobs anymore. Unless you own all the means of production, you are worthless
Pure love from start to finish! The whole process, the attention to every detail! That's why I love the label (Made in Japan) It's made for a lifetime! ❤
VERY nicely done!! You can't beat a good hurricane lamp is you lose power for an extended period of time. Excellent craftmanship!!! Watching from North Carolina, USA.
@@joansparky4439 not mammoth but in Africa hunting for your own food is still pretty common so I would imagine yes. These kerosene lamp are quite useful if you're in the area where frequent power outage in developing countries or just frequent natural disasters strike such as Japan
@@at33williamson40 frequent power outages due to societal "mismanagement" is (hopefully) a temporary thing, not something to build a business on. As for natural disasters.. there is solar and batteries these days. My point was that this is not a sustainable business going forward.. nothing is.
Very interesting. Each single lamp made, checked and packed with so much dedication. Is simply amazing. I suppose this kind of lamp is produced worldwide. Years ago I got a red one made in Germany. 👍🏻
Es maravilloso el trabajo que hacen!!!! También me alucinan esas máquinas muy antiguas que usan para la fabricación y que sigan funcionando!!! Es evidente que no hay obsolescencia programada en esas máquinas maravillosas. Un saludo a la mujer que lo hace todo!!!
Although only the basic aspects of production are shown in the video, it's nice to watch the love and care put into the manufacture of these lamps. The lady doing all the work is the grand-daughter of the company's founder, Tomekichi Bessho. She is a brave lady who as a 20 year old young woman put aside college and other career choices to take over the family company saving it from closing down.
En un mundo tan automatizado , es hermoso ver en la fabricación de un elemento tan tradicional y tan noble como un farol de kerosene una fabricación manual casi artesanal realizada con la minuciosidad y el respeto por el trabajo de una manera muy oriental , es un gran placer!, no me canso de ver este video, me lleva a los días de mi infancia cuando en los fondos de mi casa había un taller de hojalateria y matriceria donde se trabajaba de una manera muy similar, y para sumar, cuando se cortaba la luz usábamos un farol muy parecido a estos que aún conservo!
I have a couple of this brand lantern that I've had for years. They'll last a very long time with minimal care. You'll probably want a spare globe in case it's dropped, and some wicks for sure Good product
Was using same in the mid 50s scout camping.. Was wondering why name hurricane lamp. In strong wind it wont blown out. From day was curious how its made, Thanks for posting this video. Long ago they made all the tooling and operators were trained to use and make these lamps. I was a production man.
One of mankind's most useful inventions. For Safety sake I never use Kerosene but rather Olive Oil because you cannot get a flash fire with olive oil as you do so with Kerosene if the lamp is knocked over. Olive oil has been in use for a few thousand years throughout the Mediterranean area.
I am familiar with this kind of hand made manufacture, I had a factory with most of these same types of machines making products in the 1970's - I was hoping to see the two "vertical arms" being made, most complicated. AMAZING someone is still doing ! More Amazing these can still be sold & be profitable ?
The challange is the evolution of Fuel. Now its difficult to get the Kerosene. And LED lamp has replaced them. Good Art, this had helped our previous generations.
