Lamps from Recycled Found Objects

LAMPS FROM RECYCLED FOUND OBJECTS

LAMP REVIVAL offers a unique collection of recycled lamps created from found objects. Most are one-of-a-kind lamps dependent on material availability. Musical instrument lamps and vintage collectable lamps are the most popular of the found object lamps.

Vintage Bugle Lamp (Without Shade)

Now, the Boy Scouts of America have one fewer Official Bugle and the world has one more musical instrument lamp. This one is a vintage bugle lamp labeled “Rexcraft Official Bugle Boy Scouts of America.” It is appropriately dinged and bruised to project an authentic vintage look of a repurposed musical instrument.

The bugle is mounted on a handmade black stepped wood base with an integrated wire way. The lamp comes with an 8” harp and finial, but bulb and shade are NOT included. 26-1/2 inches to the top of the finial.

Antique Wood Planer Lamp (Without Shade)

Recall the time when “handmade” meant not using power tools. This antique manual wood planer may have been used to craft fine furniture, elegant mansions, ships or whatever. Now, you can repurpose this vintage relic to light your life in a totally nostalgic way. The planer is mounted on a hand-crafted black wood base. The lamp comes with a new 3-way turn knob socket and cord/plug, 10-inch harp and finial, but bulb and SHADE ARE NOT INCLUDED. Lamp is 34 inches to top of finial. The planer is 21 inches long.

Note the abused penny attached to the top of the planer, probably to denote the date the planer was purchased, but now it's too worn to read the year.

Vintage Fire Extinguisher Lamp (Without Shade)

Here’s a grand lamp made from a heavily used very vintage copper fire extinguisher. Its label identifies it as The Underwriters Fire Extinguisher manufactured by Knight & Thomas in Boston, Mass. According to a Pinterest posting, this model was probably the first one offered by Knight and Thomas who displayed it in an 1895 magazine ad. Features lots of tarnish and patina but no dents or holes. A stunning décor statement!

Lamp comes with new plug/cord, new 3-way socket, 10” harp and finial, but SHADE AND 3-WAY BULB ARE NOT INCLUDED. 37 inches to top of finial. Canister is 21-1/2” tall to handle ring x 7-1/2” diameter. 5" neck prevents the shade from obscuring the canister's top handle and provides easy access to socket switch.

Vintage Phonograph Horn Lamp (Without Shade)

A vintage brass phonograph horn makes a perfect found object lamp. The well-worn brass horn, retrieved from a dusty old barn in Maine, is mounted on a hand made wood base with sled rails. The 3-way turn knob switch on the upper socket first lights only the horn bulb, then only the upper bulb and finally both bulbs. Sold with 10” harp, finial and both bulbs, but SHADE IS NOT INCLUDED.

The lamp is shipped with a 2 inch diameter globe bulb in the horn, but the buyer is encouraged to try other interesting bulb types: larger globe bulbs, flame bulbs, silver crown, clear or frosted, as well as antique filament bulbs.

Lamp dimensions: 30” to top of finial
14-1/2” wide x 9-1/2” depth.
Horn dimensions: 9-1/2” diameter x 15” long.
