Extending Brass Wall Light WL182

Original, quality late 19th century brass wall mounted gas bracket converted to electricity. Has been wired with modern three core silk covered flex and a new brass UK bulb holder. This unusual example has an extending arm with two lengths of brass tube with a swivel joint near the circular backplate and another halfway between the two lengths. The circular cast brass backplate has some impressed decoration and the original gas tap has been retained, although the wiring has bypassed this. Although originally mounted as an uplighter, it could now be used both up or down. All has been fully overhauled, polished and lacquered, although the lacquer may be removed at no extra cost and is complete and in good and working order. The shade is not included in the price, but may be available, see our Lamp Shades Section, code: S199.
