We sell a lot of inspection lamps and this is a really nice one.  It’s an early 20th century turned wooden handled lamp with explosion proof glass shade.  When we received the lamp it was completely unrecognisable compared to how it is now. .
 
The first job was to painstakingly remove all of the old paint. When we did this on the handle it revealed the nice grain of the wood.  We gave the handle 3 coats of Fides antique oak way and a gentle polish. It looks great !!.   We rebound the handle and added a vintage leather strap so the lamp can be hung.
 
All of the metalwork was sand blasted and then polished and clear coated. The lamp has lovely brass bolts and wing nuts to secure the cage to the wooden handle.   After polishing the cage was clear coated with a clear lacquer.
 
The light was then professionally rewired with period correct braided cable and fitted with an inline switch. The lamp has a generous 1.5 mtr power cable and an inline switch. The cage of the lamp is correctly earthed and it has been PAT tested.
 
The light comes with a Vintage Edison LED bulb.  This style of lamp is excellent when used to light a corner of a room or a piece of art. Vintage inspection lamps are always popular as they can be used virtually anywhere in the home or Garage.  This one is extra special as it’s so much larger than a standard inspection lamp. This opens it up to a wide range of bayonet fitting vintage style bulbs. There is some slight rocking of the bulb in the fitment but thats to be expected given how many bulbs have probably been in and out of it over the last 75+ years !! . There is also some light hazing of the glass.
 
When lit the light looks stunning as it casts the most amazing shadows. The photos really don't do it any justice at all.
 
This is not just beautiful light but a great piece of early 20th century art that is guaranteed to be a conversation piece for years to come!
 
This lamp has the following approx dimensions:
 
Cone Diameter - 11 cm
Length -  36cm
