Edison Table Lamp - Wood plane series #36

Our Edison lamps combine recycled timber with edgy industrial materials, which reflect New Zealand’s commercial and agricultural history.

They'll enhance your room and stimulate discussion.

This Edison table lamp has been created from an old carpenter's wood block plane made by the German manufacturer, Henry Böker, whose family's small hardware factory dates back to the 17th Century.

The Böker brand, featuring a crossed arrow can still be clearly seen on the cutting blade.

• The dimensions of the lamp base are: length 24cm, width 7cm, height with bulb, 20cm.
• 1 kg

The plane has been cleaned, lightly sanded to remove years of grime, and hand finished with natural beeswax.

I have tried to retain a sense of the history of the tool by leaving surface marks while cleaning and polishing the beautiful wood.

Each plane comes with a written history.

The vintage E27 40W screw fit Edison bulb, which comes with your lamp, has a life of about 1500 hours and can be easily changed for any number of similar bulbs that are  easily available in New Zealand.

Each lamp is tagged and tested to ensure electrical safety. It has a long lead and an in-line switch.

We recommend a maximum 40W bulb.

Your Edison lamp has a felt pad on the base to protect any surface you choose to put it on.
