This particular one has some wear and tear to the base - notably to the corners of the black box and some scuffing to the silver - and has suffered damage to part of its shade plastics (to the left hand side corner and edge). At some point in the past the latter damage has been given some repair, including remodelling and a respray (there are some signs of a green paint, probably also not original). It's not perfect by any mean, but it's also not too noticeable: certainly not bad enough to warrant being re-done and risk more damage. The lamp has been left "as is" because the overall look and the striking styling of the lamp absolutely overwhelms these shortcomings, in least in our opinion. Reasonable offers are invited for this item in its current state.

The lamp shade measures apprximately 50cm (20 in.) across and 8cm (3 in.) deep, with a height of 4cm (1½ in.) - all measurements are maximums. The base is approximately 13 cm (5 in.) square with a height of 4cm (1½ in.).  The fixed part of the stand has a height of about 22cm (9 in.), whilst the gooseneck has an extended length of 14cm (6cm).

Made by B.O.E. the lamp is in good vintage condition. There are minor superficial imperfections to both the shade and the base and blemishes to the paintwork, but overall it's cosmetically sound considering its age. Most importantly, that precious wing hasn't suffered any deformations or dents!

The lamp in normal use stands at approximately 35cm (14 in.) high with the solid part of the neck and base making up about 17cm (6¾ in,) of that. The wing measures approximately 40cm (16 in.) across with a depth of 9cm (3½ in.). The tube is a standard T4 or T5 diameter with bipin (two pin) connectors.

The lamp is fully working and is in good condition overall. As should be expected, there are some minor dings and wear but nothing which adversely affects the general look of the lamp. The "wing" measures 48cm x 8cm (19in. x 3¼ in.) and fully extended the gooseneck measures 30cm (12 in.)

Made in Finland by the LIVAL company, this large anglepoise-style desklamp in black metal and plastic has a distinctive rectangular wing profile shade which can be adjusted and set at an angle. The shade itself is 26cm x 12 cm. The heavily weighted base keeps the whole thing stable, removes the need for a clamp, and also contains small trays for storage. The trademark-style LIVAL red button for on/off operation is cleverly embedded into the shade and the power wire hidden inside the armature. The light extends to a height of 72cm and the whole can be rotated through 90 degrees giving oodles of flexibility when it comes to use (see photos for just a few examples).

The lamp is in very good condition with only some minor wear to the metal work which is to be expected, but quite frankly nothing could detract from THESE looks. Dating from the 1980s and visually quite stunning, one of us (Jon!) will shed a little tear to part with this!
