Paul Secon for Sompex Lucite and Wire Space Age Table Lamp, 1960s
About the Item
A rare table lamp by Paul Secon. His lights are more commonly found as pendants.
It had lost is internal fixtures so we had our master craftsman make an appropriate white and chrome harp fixture for the interior, based on images of original Paul Secon table lamps. The new internal fixture highlights the clear Lucite design beautifully.
The internal fixture also makes it easy to change the bulb. Simply unscrew and remove the core. A bit like taking a core out of a nuclear reactor - very appropriate visuals for the period in which the lamp was produced.
Takes one B15 or SBC (small bayonet cap) bulb to max 40w for conventional incandescent bulbs. LED can go much brighter as they produce little heat. Bulb included in sale.
A splendid piece of 1960s Space Age design.
Tested and tagged, rewired to Australian Standard for a 240v system. It is compatible with European 220v electrical systems, simply change plug. Rewiring is recommended for use in the US and anywhere a 110v system is in place.
