Unique Telescopic Shade, Tent Blackout Lamp

About the Item

These are quite different. The lamps are small and look perfect hung in numbers. As an informal group or in a line across a counter. They were used in military field tents. When pulled down it worked as a more intimate reading lamp. Raised and snapped in place in the up position it would light a larger area. The bulb socket is also unique with it screw clamp end to hold the wire. We just discovered a nice collection of these. All are rewired including Edison bulb, canopy and black twisted fabric covered wire.

Arts and Crafts Sculptured Chandelier with Unique Large Colored Art Glass Shade
Located in Lisse, NL
Stunning, sizeable and highly decorative Arts & Crafts light fixture. This gorgeous, five-light chandelier is another one of our recent great finds. Inspired by the beauty of nature and wildlife and motivated by the renewed interest in anything handmade, many Arts & Crafts designers and craftsman around the world have created some of the most interesting decorative art in the history of mankind. This hand-crafted and circular chandelier too is the result of a great design and an equally impressive execution which makes this antique an absolute joy to own and look at. The organic design with its stylized flower motifs and the unique and colorful glass panels incorporated in that design has created a work of lighting art that will never fail to impress. The stunning, hand hammered canopy with the perfectly inserted 4 lights is an important feature of this work of lighting art, but the hand-forged body of this pendant with its amazing patina is at least as impressive. The overal shape, the unique decor, its impressive size and its second to none patina make this one of a kind chandelier stand out like no modern light fixture ever could. If you already have a place and a space in mind for it then this fixture could be yours to enjoy soon. The workmanship that has gone into creating this chandelier and the sustainable materials that were used, make sure that this work of lighting art will last for centuries and that it can be enjoyed by many generations to come. Mind you, this work of lighting art too will be professionally rewired (to the highest standard) for safe and immediate usage the world over. And if you like this grand pendant light...
