Pair Of 1950's Wooden Dice Atomic Table Lamps + 1950's Fibreglass Shades "DICE"

Hello, and thanks for stopping by lumenowl!

INTRO:

This kitsch but fabulously stylish little lamp set has been fully restored from a matching (although separately sourced) 1950's pair of lamps. Each features an original 1950's red fibreglass shade, perfectly matched to the red die dots. These charming little lamps would make perfect bedside companions in any mid-century styled home.

CONDITION:

The lamp bases themselves are in very good/excellent vintage condition, with just a few small knocks/chips in the wood. The teak bases have been gently cleaned, and some of the pitting and dulling has been removed with Autosol metal cleaner. A few of the red dots have been fastened in more securely. Overall, these little lamps have weathered the course of time extremely well.

The fibreglass lampshades are also in excellent vintage condition, with no splits, staining or areas of concern that typically spoil such shades.

THE TECHNICAL BIT:

DICE have had all vintage electrical components removed, and now feature gorgeous, machine-milled brass E14/SES (making it compatible with bulbs sold in the UK, Europe and the US) lamp holders, slightly extended from the base to ensure maximum visibility over the lampshades. Internal cord grips in the base of the holders keep the cable sturdily and safely in place.


DICE have been rewired with luxurious quality bark coloured linen and rayon covered cable in a fantastic zig-zag pattern, featuring high quality white inline rocker switches 20cm from the lamp bases (and a further 1m to the matching white UK 3-pin plug). The metal lamp holders are earthed using three-core cable, and DICE have been thoroughly PAT tested and approved (with a sticker affixed near the plug to show the PASS status). Components comprise of a British-made and certified lamp holder and plug, and Italian-made cable and switch, which have passed or exceeded relevant CE and EU electrical integrity tests.

Please note, when purchasing vintage glassware, earthenware and ceramics etc., some age-related signs of wear such are to be expected. These include, but are not limited to; fine surface scratches/scuff marks, superficial chips, colour aberrations and dulling of parts that have been exposed to abrasive treatment. I ensure I list any aesthetic faults in both the descriptions and photographs, but please always satisfy yourself the item you are purchasing matches the description.
