Do you know what this is?


Do you know what this is?heat lamp to table lamp
  

It has a pretty cast iron foot-print.




It can look up !!!

                It can look down !!!

    
It has a lovely reflective face.

... and  a pretty black handle so you can carry it around.


             ... a pretty backside too.




remove the heating coil ... 
add a Edison-style light bulb ...

and you have turned a Vintage heat lamp 

into a very pretty industrial table lamp.                                                                                                                                        

Thanks for the visit ... 
Hope you will let me know you were here.
Your comments make my happy.

Blessings,

  6. I sell every one of these heaters I can find. They all have lovely patina and unique shapes. Most I have found have copper reflective shields. I love this one in green. It is nifty! Do you rewire them first? I usually cut the ancient wiring off before selling.

  20. Jeg har også en gammel varmelampe men kender ikke dens oprindelse. Det kan være fra 20'erne - 60'erne alt efter opslag om nogle der minder om den. Tror de fleste ændrer den til lampe, hvilket er en fantastisk idé. Din er flot i grøn.
