A very stylish pair of Mid-Century brass and black metal lamp stands with distinctive conical bases, possibly of German origin and probably dating from the 1950s. Each lamp stands features a larger black metal cone base housing the push-button switch, with a brass vertical, and then a smaller inverted cone leading to the brass bulb holder. All in all, a very unusual and eye-catching design.

The stands have a removable base for access to the wiring. This is important to note, as these require some additional work to make them usable. They are sold "as is". Each measures approximately 22cm (8¾ in.) in height from the base to the bulb holder, with the bases having a diameter of just under 10cm (4 in.). The lower cone has a height of 8.5cm (3¼ in.) whilst the upper cone is slightly bigger at 9.5cm (8¾ in.)

Please note, due to the nature of these items and their "as found" condition, it is the buyer's responsibility to ensure that they are rewired and safety checked prior to use.

Vintage Yellow Gooseneck Desk or Bedside Lamp Perforated Shade

Sometimes attributed to Hala Zeist, though more likely a variation on the Maclamp model TL33, this iconic-shaped desk or bedside lamp features a perforated conical shade and brass gooseneck. Dating from the 1970s, it is presented in a yellow tone and is in good condition with only minor signs of wear and tear. The shade, perforated in two places (stars near the open end and circular holes near the closed rear), is notable in that it has retained a very good shape. The circular base houses a centrally located simple on-off push switch in black and white. An uncommon lamp, in an unusual colour, and in very presentable condition to boot.

The lamp measures approximately 38cm (15 in.) high with the neck fully extended, the neck itself is about 26cm (10 in.) in length, and the lamp base is approximately 13cm (5 in.) in diameter.
