In very good cosmetic condition and fully working, the clock takes a "C"-size battery. It has a ticking second hand, but not a load or unpleasant ticking sound by any means.

The base measures 8cm by 5cm, with an overall height of 16.5cm and depth of 5.5cm. The face diameter is approximately 15cm.

This one is in an untampered-with condition which is our preference. The signs of wear are all part of the lamp's credentials and history, and we'd much rather see a dented original shade than a pristine modern replacement. These things are built to last however, so structurally and functionally this one is sound - the lamp holds position and works extremely well throughout its range. The heavy base has signs of use and age but is clean and there are no breakages anywhere. What is new, however, is the wiring and the bulb holder and the adjustment screw at the elbow. We've gone for a very simple combination of black braided three-core cable (earthed to the earthing screw at the base) and a standard lamp bulb holder. Less is more sometimes. The adjustment screw is more or less cosmetic but it does help maintain that perfect balance should you use a heavier or lighter bulb.

Please get in touch with us to discuss postage and courier options. This is a heavy and large item at the same time as being a fragile one, so we would prefer you to collect or arrange a reliable courier to collect for you.

The stand measures 28cm up to the bulb holder with a base diameter of just over 8cm. There are signs of age and use throughout and some minor losses, but in this particular case it just adds to the charm of the item. Almost certainly when it was first made it was a brighter white, but it has aged to a cream tone.

Please note:, this is only the lamp stand, no shade is provided.

In good condition with some superficial signs of use this is an unusual telephone from a time when such items were as much decorative as functional, and certainly said something about the person and the household.

In good working condition with just a few minor surface blemishes/grazes to be expected of an item of this age and use.

This one is in good working order and in generally good condition except for some small scratches to the shade and some minor surface losses to the rim of the shade and to the back of it. The base is in good shape aside from a couple of grazes to the plastic, and there is little in the way of discoloration which is always good.  All in all, it's a good-looking lamp with understated appeal.

The lamp measures approximately 38 cm (15 in.) in height when the neck is fully extended. The base has a diameter of about 13cm (5¼ in.) and the black gooseneck section is  24cm (9½ in.) in length. The cable (UK plug) is approximately 180cm (71 in.) in length. The lamp holder takes a large bayonet bulb.

This one is in good condition where it counts - the display is nice and clear with only minimal superficial scratches and the body is on the whole in good condition. There's some wear to the buttons on the top and to the corners, and the odd graze, but it's far from being the worst we've seen. Overall, for a 35+ year old item which would have been used on a daily basis, it's very good indeed. The unit measures 25cm long (9¾ in.) with a height of 9cm (3½ in.) and a depth of 8cm (3¼ in.)

This unit is in very good condition overall. There are, as to be expected, signs of use - notably some marks to the rear and superficial scratches to the high-gloss front, but otherwise the plastics are in very good condition, no chips or cracks.  As a bonus, the original box and instructions are present, albeit the former has more obvious signs of age and wear.

The unit measures approximately 42cm long with a height of 5cm and a depth of 6cm  (16.5 in.,  2 in. and  2½ in. respectively).

The lamp does have a defect - there's a dent to the shade, an almost flat spot where it has had an impact of some kind - and although it is a shame, it does not detract too much from the look of the lamp and is not in an immediately obvious location. The high reflectivity of the chrome shape also helps to distract. The base is composed of a black enamelled cast metal with a plastic underside and has a white, solid feeling swtich.
Otherwise, the lamp is in good condition, with only minor signs of age and wear.  It measures approximately 48cm (19 in.) in height with the gooseneck fully extended, of which 18cm (7 in.) is the rubberised gooseneck portion. The base has an approximate diameter of 15cm (6 in.) and a depth of 3.5cm (1½ in.). The ball shade has an opening of 11cm (4¼ in.) and an overall diameter of approximately 14cm (5½ in.).  It takes a standard bayonet bulb ftting.
