Unique Table Lamp - A Perfect Blend

Discover the perfect blend of history and modern design with this exceptional table lamp.

Crafted from a vintage carpenter’s wood block ‘jack’ plane by Marples & Sons, a renowned Sheffield-based toolmaker from the mid-19th century, this Edison lamp showcases authentic industrial heritage.

The Marples brand remains etched on the steel cutting blade, highlighting its craftsmanship.

This piece offers a sophisticated lighting solution that honors traditional woodworking while enhancing contemporary interiors.

 

The plane has been cleaned, lightly sanded, and hand finished with natural beeswax. It has a felt pad underneath to protect any surfaces you choose to place it on. 

Any marks and blemishes resulting from years of use have been retained to give a sense of the history of the tool and those who have used it.

Its character and history have been enhanced by the addition of a ‘vintage’ 40W Edison bulb with multiple light emitting filaments that capture the essence of a by-gone era. 

  • The dimensions of the lamp base are: height with bulb, 20cm, width 7 cm, length 43 cm
  • 2 kg

The replica 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 widely available in New Zealand.

Each lamp is independently tagged and tested. 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.
