It all began with a parabolic radiator with a beautiful brass dish found on a French flea market. Brass is the perfect “lampshade” to create a warm golden light. So it had to be a lamp. This industrial/steampunk table lamp was made from:
- The desk lamp has been made from an old parabolic heater.
- The dish is solid brass and the base is made out of bakelite.
- The head can be oriented and it can be hanged on a wall.
After a thorough cleaning of the brass and the bakelite base, the electrical resistance in the center of the dish has been replaced by a brand new electrical system with an elegant fiber-covered cable.
An Edison style bulb
What an interesting idea. Thank you for sharing!
