Background Info and Provenance

Another unicorn from the Daylesford downsize – this lamp is perfect for a lady’s or gentleman’s study and you are unlikely to see another for sale in Australia. These were made in the US in the 1950’s and adorned many a Palm Springs home. The shades are spun fibreglass and cast a warm honeyed light across a space. The twin lights are rare – as is the sleek wooden base. The twin branches are fully flexible so can cast light in any direction. The current owners had this lamp rewired to Australian safety standards by a professional vintage lighting electrician in Preston, Melbourne. We love the elegant, refined Danish aesthetic- it would really look the part amongst amongst Danish furniture of the same era. This is an iconic fifties Palm Springs piece – grab it before someone else does!

After much modern lighting has ended up as landfill, this vintage lamp will be passed on to yet another generation, a symbol that when something has been done well, it will live on. There’s no better way I can think of to invest in your home and the future of our environment.

Excellent refurbished condition - some rust spotting on gold flexible arms commensurate with age but this is does not detract from the piece - it rather adds to the patina and allows you to be sure you are buying an original item. All elements work as they should and there are no structural defects at all. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Measurements. cm. cm.
