Description

A pair of converted ships lamps ideal for people interested in nautical themes or lovers of the industrial look.

Salvaged from a decommissioned ship these lamps have sailed the seas since 1981 indicating the port and starboard sides and now reinvented into these unique lamps. As can be expected there are a few dinks and dings to the metal but all are evidence are their past working life. The brass and copper has been gently cleaned leaving some of the patination before being lacquered to prevent tarnishing and the need for further polishing.

Behind the frenzl lenses new lamp holders have been installed and a separate lamp holder to the top holds the shade. This means that the coloured lenses can be illuminated independently via their own push button switch. Equally the lamp to the top can be used without the need to light the body or all three bulbs can be lit at the same time.

Supplied with pleated black lamp shades as in images (currently still in cellophane wrapping) and traditional black twist flex.
