Industrial 1960's X246A Vintage Tilley Lamp Black Dome,Steampunk, Retro Electric

Description: This incredible desk / table lamp is not only a fully functional lamp but also a stunning piece of art.The starting piece for this lamp was a 1960's Tilley X246A paraffin lantern. The brass on this lamp has been lovingly polished over the years. To prevent the need for further polishing we sealed in with 3 coats of clear lacquer. There are some minor some dents in the fuel tank but these just add to the character.The top dome was in poor condition when we found it so we had it professionally powder coated in stunning Black. It has a finish now that will last for another 60 years !!The glass is in good condition with no chips or cracks. The bulb is retained inside it nicely. In fact, after the conversion you would never know it wasn't always meant to be an electric lamp.The centre of the lamp has been adapted by us to accept an antique style light fitting. This was professionally wired with period correct braided 3 core vintage cable. The cable is a generous 1.2 metres long and is fitted with a 3 pin fused plug and inline switch. The lamp is fully earthed for electrical safety.To put the finishing touches to the light we have used a smoked E27 screw fitting Edison Radio Tube style Light Bulb (included). This gives a beautiful soft white light and the filament is clearly visible when its turned on.When lit the light looks amazing, casting great shadows as the light bulb glows through the original tilly lamp glass. The photos really don't do it any justice at all.The light is very versatile and can either be used on a side table or it can be hung from its carrying handle.This is not just beautiful light but a great piece of art that is guaranteed to be a conversation piece for years to come!This lamp has the following approx dimensions:Height - 35 cmWidth - 18cmPlease be advised this is a vintage item, it bears a number of minor bumps and marks that it has gained over the last 60 years. Have a good look at the pictures as these really show the condition.We make products that are as unique as you so if you don't see a light that you like? Let us make something just for you. We are happy to work on commissions both large and small.
