DetailsVintage 1960's Danish Scandi Teak Table Lamp "SPINDLE"
Hello, and thanks for stopping by lumenowl!
---------------
INTRO:
This outrageously stylish, three-tone wooden lamp base has been fully cleaned, restored and rewired. Presented in a sleek, spindle form, this is a gorgeous example of Scandinavian minimalism and is adorned with extremely Deco-reminiscent patterning. This knockout lamp would fit in beautifully with any similarly mid-century interior, and would make *the* perfect lounge lamp.
---------------
CONDITION:
The base is in excellent vintage condition, with only a few light cosmetic scratches and dents belying its age. The base has responded fantastically well to a generous beeswax coating and polish. The wood is now stunningly glossy, and this lamp has been a true survivor.
---------------
THE TECHNICAL BIT:
SPINDLE has had all vintage electrical components removed and replaced with modern variants. In place of the original Bakelite B22 lamp holder (which limited where in the world the lamp could be used, and is itself slowly fading into obsolescence) now sits a gorgeous, machine-milled brass E27/ES version, now making the lamp compatible with bulbs sold in the UK, Europe, the US and beyond, extended slightly from the base with new brass to ensure maximum visibility once a lampshade is added.
SPINDLE has been rewired with luxurious quality bark coloured linen and rayon covered cable in a fantastic zig-zag pattern, featuring a high quality white inline rocker switch 20cm from the lamp base (and a further 1m to the matching white UK 3-pin plug). The metal lamp holder is earthed using three-core cable, and the lamp has been thoroughly PAT tested and approved (with a sticker affixed near the plug to show the PASS status).

Frequently Asked Questions
Can your lamps be customised for my country?
Yes, absolutely! I ship worldwide, and I've already serviced many international orders. My lamps are fitted with either E14/SES or E27/ES lamp holders (which are usable with bulbs sold all over the world) and UK 3-pin plugs, but these can be swapped out to US E26/E12 Candelabra fittings on request for a small additional fee. A plug corresponding to your country will be added, and, if necessary, an inline on/off switch.

Once converted, I will then test the lamps on a transformer and re-certify via an additional PAT test.
Please simply choose the appropriate option from the "Country" dropdown menu at the top of each listing to have the lamp customised.Are your lamps safe?
Extremely! Each of my lamps is painstakingly assembled (I have a long history of competency with electrical wiring), and subsequently certified. I am PAT qualified and accredited. Moreover, all of my metal lamps use 3-core cable to ensure a proper, safe earthing conduit.
Please feel free to message me with any other questions.Can you make custom lamps? What if I provided you with a vase or bottle?
One of the biggest joys of this whole endeavour so far for me has been problem solving each individual lamp I make.
If you've got a vase, bottle (or other item!) lying around you'd like to see turned into a lamp, please do get in touch with me! I'd be more than happy to discuss with you your ideas and how we could best achieve them.Where did the names of your lamps come from?
All the lamps I make (either individual or a series) originally were named after all the dog siblings I've had in the family over the years, or pups I've known over the years. As my collection has grown, I've started to use character names from my favourite films and TV shows.
What happens if my order arrives damaged or broken?
I'm extremely conscientious about packaging. In the unlikely event your order is damaged in transit and arrives to you broken, please immediately photograph both the packaging and the lamp istelf. Please then forward the images within 24 hours to tom@lumenowl.co.uk, and I will then assess and resolve the situation for you.
Can you repair or rewire an old lamp I have?
Yes, absolutely! I've already done this a couple of times. I can remove aged lamp holders, wiring and switches and replace with brand new variants. Once complete, I will exhaustively test and certify via a PAT test.
Please drop me a message if you have any questions about this service, or would like a quote.
