One of the things that left a lasting impressions of New Orleans for me was these beautiful gas lamps. I'd never seen them before.
Yes, These are gas lanterns on the porch ! Aren't they magical?
Imagine a whole city with these beauties. What's so pretty about these is how the flame flickers. It's pretty magical .
Bevolo's gas burners were designed to provide a unique "bat-wing" shaped flame while offering the lowest BTU rating. They are only available on Bevolo fixtures and cost approximately $7-$8/month to operate.
Cool right?

It all began way back about 68 years ago. Bevolo Gas and Electric Lights began in the French Quarter in 1945 when Andrew Bevolo Sr. revolutionized the production of gas lamps. Utilizing a hand riveting technique , he created sustainable gas lights. WAY before his time Right? His master craftsmanship and artistic style paired up with the talents of renowned architect A. Hayes Town created what is now known as the French Quarter Lamp. They are everywhere I tell you ! This family owned business continues growing strong , producing each and every piece by hand. I had the pleasure of visiting the showroom and factory with Modenus & the BlogTourNOLA team and I got to see the production in person myself. 
Bevolo lamps are sustainable. Bevolo handcrafts their fixtures from the purest copper possible. They pride themselves on fixtures that are lifetime products and will be in your family for generations to come. To read more about this click here. and here for more reasons to LOVE and purchase Bevolo.
Don't you agree that these could be AMAZING everywhere ? I REALLY want one now :)
