About Us
Our joy is to take unwanted bygone items into our workshop, turn them into unusual lamps and make them useful again.
Lots of time, thought and care goes into each piece and we let the history of the item show through. Looking beautiful on or off, we have left the shades behind and used bulbs that complement the lamps.
So, we rescue bygone items and we rescue old packaging too, why use new when we can give boxes a second chance as well?

About Our Lamps
Functional and beautiful, with bulbs chosen to complement each piece.
All our lamps are switched (excluding low voltage), fully P.A.T tested, and covered by our lifetime craftsmanship guarantee — because we believe in making things that last (See our FAQ for more details).
We hope you enjoy our lamps as much as we’ve enjoyed making them.
