"Making something out of the ordinary, out of the ordinary”  Desk Lamp from Upcycled Demi-John
Table Lamp Base An unusual vintage brown glass Demi-John upcycled to create a lamp base which would complement both modern and traditional home interiors. The Demi-John base is 330mm high approximately and 170mm diameter. The lamp is fitted with all new 3-core black electric cable with in-line switch connecting to an Edison Screw (ES) lamp fitting secured via a 10mm diameter threaded brass bung. The cable enters the Demi-John at its base via a grommet filled hole drilled for this purpose and secured with cable restraint. The lamp is supplied complete with a 3 in 1 LED warm white 95mm diameter globe shaped bulb: i.e. switch on for full brightness; switch off and quickly on again for 30% dimming; then switch off. Also supplied with a 200mm fabric covered burgundy drum shade to complement the brown Demi-John base resulting in an overall height of approximately 500mm.  Dimmable Desk Lamp from Vintage Blowlamp
Dimmable Desk Lamp  Dimmable Plane 'n Simple Desk Lamp
Plane 'n Simple Dimmable Desk Lamp A glass vial is recessed into the front of the plane, which can accept pens and pencils to complement its function as a Desk Lamp - or a dried flower perhaps to add a little cheer! Each plane is stripped down to its separate parts before being cleaned, linseed oiled, waxed and polished - but still retaining the patina, bumps and bruises reflecting years of honest toil! Parts are machined as required to accommodate fittings (e.g. wedge drilled through) then reassembled to create the body of the lamp.  Pitch Pine Candle Trays

Hand made stylish trays made from reclaimed Pitch Pine which has been chosen for its striking and contrasting grain. Each tray is hand finished to a lustrous wax sheen and recesses are machined to receive either: battery operated LED Tea Light Candle, Votive Candles in Glass, or Pillar Candles as required. The trays are made using 25mm thick wonderfully scented Pitch Pine. Standard trays are 360mm or 600mm long and accept 3 or 5 candles but can be made to order. The completed Candle Trays will grace any dining table or mantlepiece. Alternatively enjoy late summer and autumn evenings using them to bring an ethereal soft glow to any garden setting or barbecue. Supplied complete with Candles. The trays are hand made in-house and so please ask for any variations required in terms of number and type of Lights, their spacing, overall dimensions and wood finishes.
