Lamps

I have a wide variety of lamps: table lamps, standard lamps, wall sconces and pendant fittings. These can all be seen at my showroom just off Westbourne Grove, on the fringe of Notting Hill Gate.
The lamps are period, decorative and antique. Each one is an individual piece, so you will not see the same thing anywhere else. Many are traditional styles but others may be custom made from unusual objects such as old croquet balls, tea caddies, a seltzer bottle and even the nozzle of a fire hose.
The collection usually includes silver candlesticks, old altar sticks, 1930’s glass, ceramic vases, Chinese porcelain, turned English wood, Edwardian brass reading lamps, classic columns, French tole and much more. It is constantly changing and is reasonably priced.

All lamps have been professionally re-wired to meet British standards.
Where appropriate they have a square pin plug, a switched lampholder, and 3 core silk flex in white, silver, gold, bronze or black.
Existing lamps can be re-wired, to various international specifications.
Clients’ own vases, candlesticks, figures etc can be made into lamps.

A wide variety can be supplied, including hand-made silk shades, laminated fabrics, and papers, silver or gold lined, card and PVC.
All shades are made to order and special shapes can be undertaken.

The descriptions, dimensions and dates are given in good faith, but cannot be guaranteed.
All items have some age to them, unless otherwise specified.
