This one is in good overall condition. There are some signs of age and use throughout and some surface losses around the rim of the shade and a small dent to it. The base was not in very good condition and has been sanded and re-sprayed with white enamel and given a gloss finish. It's not perfect when closely inspected, but the repair has given back the lamp its good looks, as the original base was distractingly worse for wear.

The lamp is full working order and has an inline switch on the cable and a UK three-pin plug. As always, buyers are advised to perform a safety check of electrical equipment in the environment within which it is to be used.

We'd call the colour mushroom, a sort of light brown/grey and although that doesn't sound promising when expressed like that, this set of spotlights really does look good.

With its fully adjustable twin spotlights, this lamp complements the mushroom colour with black detailing and a gold tone metal adjustable stand onto which the spots clamp. The base is plastic and weighted down internally in metal and it stands steady.  The black box containing the two independent switches and the black coiled power cabling all add to the 70s vibe of this light.  This really does look the part...

The stand adjusts from a minimum height of around 120cm (47in) up to a maximum height of around 170cm (67in) and the base is 27cm (10½in) in diameter.

Condition-wise, it's all really rather good. The plastic base has some minor scratches and there are signs of use on the stand and around the adjusting wings on the spotlights, but these are things that a "normal" observer wouldn't spot (excuse the pun) and are only noticeable with very close inspection. It's in good shape overall and it works perfectly.

This item may be collected by the buyer or courier service arranged after purchase.
