This is an attractive vintage 1960s / 1970s desk amp which was manufactured in Italy by Prova - and then imported to the UK and sold at BHS (British Home Stores) in the 1970s. These BHS vintage pieces are now becoming quite collectable - which their stylish but affordable designs.
This one looks for inspiration to similar designs made by Peter Nelson - but is obviously a much more affordable version.
I have a couple of these available in my store - this one is the white enamel and stainless steel version.
It is generally in good vintage condition, generally nice, and clean. No major disfiguring dents etc to the shade. There are a couple of little restored paint losses on the base - only a couple of tiny dings - and hardly noticeable - so this one is slightly lower in price.
The lamp has a chrome upright stand that issues from a round white enamelled base. There is a black hard plastic knop that turns and allows you to raise and lower the shade arm. The other arm with the shade can also be moved about here to a variety of angles, as photographed.
It is about 43 cm in height. The diameter of the base is 16 cm (6 1/4 inches)
The overall length of the shade is 19 cm (7 1/2 inches)
The diameter of the shade at the widest is 11 cm (4 1/4 inches).
It has its original finger switch and about 2 meters of cable.
The base has its original paper covering below - as photographed. It retains its original Prova, Made in Italy label.
Of course, it is sold in working condition. It takes a Standard B22 bayonet light bulb.
