Workshop Legacy Lamp | #140
Lighting That Keeps the Craft Alive
Every Workshop Legacy Lamp begins with a vintage carpenter’s plane — a relic from the days when every cut, curve, and joint was made by hand.
JB transforms these old tools into something enduring: light that honours the past while brightening the present. The mix of beech wood, soft light and history makes each lamp a conversation piece — equal parts nostalgia and modern design.
This plane was manufactured and originally used in Germany. Planes of European heritage were often provided with horn-style front handle which aid a pulling motion rather than pushing.
Celebrate the beauty of craftsmanship — own a piece that carries the spirit of New Zealand’s making heritage.
- The dimensions of the lamp base are: height with bulb, 24 cm, width 6.5 cm, length 26 cm
- 1.4 kg
The plane has been cleaned, lightly sanded to remove years of grime, and hand finished with natural beeswax.
The included vintage-style 4W LED candle bulb is designed to last approximately 1500 hours.
Each lamp is independently tagged and tested. It has a long lead and an in-line switch.
Your Edison lamp has a felt pad on the base to protect any surface you choose to put it on.
