This vintage hospital lamp is an original vintage item, meaning there are signs of wear, making it highly unique. It has some dents in the back and the front panel with the handle has been repaired.

we gave the spotlight a fresh satin black finish and mounted it onto a vintage bilora aluminum photography tripod. The result? a functional floor lamp that doubles as a conversation piece and design statement.

the spotlight now houses a standard e14 fitting, suitable for most bulbs (including led, one included with purchase). It comes with approximately 3 meters of cord, light switch, and an eu plug.
