January [been trying to sell it since January, LOL!] Half price SALE this item was £90, but willing to accept £40 for a quick sale!  

I am not an electrician and therefore I would suggest that you get this looked over by an electrician before using. 

 

I am not a qualified electrician but I would imagine that these lights would easily be rewired with a more modern fittings but I would personally use these old parts if possible.  

 

I have not seen any similar lights up-cycled!

Sounds ridiculous but they make lamps out of all sorts of old tat.

I know but at least when it's the brass chart lamp from a cold war destroyer it sort of justifies the price and can look quite cool, in the right place, this is just utterly hideously ugly.

 

That said I made lampshades out of 3x old binned fruit machine reels glued together, attatched to £4.99 homebase lamps and got £40 a pop last xmas.
