Teak Base \u0026 Fully Adjustable with Finger Switch","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a very unusual desk lamp, and as yet have not found any other ones listed quite like it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn offer here is one (my other has already been sold). It is a vintage desk or space-age table lamp dating from around the late 1960s - 1970s. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lamp is a very well-made designer example and is certainly a top-quality one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is not flimsy in construction and has a good weight to it; so no toppling over factor which you might find in similar lamps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe base is made of a wood \/ teak material and if you look underneath - there is a heavy metal insert to give the weight to the lamp: there is no maker's name just an impressed number which reads: 222.023.001\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the centre of the wooden base rises a chrome pole or upstand. Attached to the upstand is a geometric wooden block - which matches the base. This block can readily move up and down the upstand and is tightened by a screw at the back. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the other end of the wooden block issues the chrome attachment for the globe shade. This attaches onto a pivot joint on the shade and allows the lamp to be moved about and positioned in a rotating motion. So a great lamp to position with it being able to move up and down and then around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shade is made of white metal and has a glossy coating of slightly sparkly matt-gold or copper coloured enamel. The interior of the shade is a shiny silver coloured metal to reflect the light from the bulb.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bulb is a bayonet fitting - which suggests that the lamp might be British in origin. The design is very reminiscent of other similar table lamps by Staff Leuchten which were made in Germany in 1970s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: The base is 6 ¾ inches in diameter with a height of 1 inch. The lampshade diameter is 6 ½ inches. The maximum height is 20 inches. It is 2.5 kg unpacked.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn good vintage condition. There is some wee rubbing to the very edge of the wooden base; which I will polish before posting. Some minor scuffing to the wooden trim on the foot, commensurate with age and use. Therr are little white felt pads applied to stop the base scratching your furniture etc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shade is scratch free and has no nasty dents. The lamp is fully adjustable and stays in pose. Sold as working and are turned on and off by original finger switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy price takes into account the quality of the lamp, the rarity of the design and its condition. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy lamp would be sent to you with Royal Mail Medium Parcel. Please select a signed for service so I can have the parcel fully insured against loss or damage in transit. This will be applied to your order at the checkout. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Iconic Edinburgh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55714061582715,"sku":"MUSSELBURGH","price":245.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0271\/1902\/6240\/files\/1960s-belgian-desk-lamp-copper-enamel-eye-ball-globe-metal-shade-teak-base-fully-adjustable-with-finger-switch-vintage-299.webp?v=1788508686","url":"https:\/\/www.iconicedinburgh.co.uk\/products\/1960s-belgian-desk-lamp-copper-ball-shade-teak-base-finger-switch","provider":"Iconic Edinburgh","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
