About the Item

1950s Industrial large Benjamin enameled hanging ceiling pendant lamps/lights 1950s Industrial large Benjamin enameled hanging ceiling pendant lamps/lights. Benjamin was arguably the market leader in Industrial lighting in the 1930s through to 1960s. Their main market was providing tough enameled lamps to large factories. These four lamps came from the Eastleigh train yards on the South Coast. The Eastleigh yard opened in 1891 and has an illustrious history including producing parts for Blenheim bombers and Horsa gliders for D-Day. Made from spun and enameled steel with intricate cast aluminum tops. The lamps were covered in paint, grease and dirt which was removed to reveal lamps in exceptional original condition, it is also unusual to have Benjamin’s of this scale. Four available, they are being sold singularly. These lamps are strong visual statements perfect for a hall, contemporary kitchen or living space. Each lamp has been cleaned and restored and all electrical components have been removed and replaced with modern European CE standard components to BS EN 60598. Each lamp is individually tested and labelled to BS EN 60598. Included: Each lamp comes completely wired and ready to install including; 2 meters of zinc coated chain for hanging the lamps, 2 meters of black silk covered electrical cable and a ceiling hook as shown. The lamp is fitted with a standard E27 threaded lamp holder for which a wide range of modern and vintage style filament bulbs are widely available. We do not currently sell bulbs and recommend LED bulbs 6W maximum. We select the best colour/style of cable for each lamp but additional colors are available for different projects. Our alternative cable colors (in stock) are as shown in the images with numbered cables. Additional special order colors are available and we can also supply more than 2 meters of hanging cable/wire/chain etc. as required. We are specialists in refurbishment of vintage lighting.
