Rebuilt American Studio Spot/floodlight

Now available are numerous reconditioned and refurbished studio spotlights including this 65 year old steampunk-style unit that comes replete with a 6 inch Fresnel lens, levers allowing the light beam to adjust from spot (narrow) to flood (wide) and a chrome plated and wheeled stand that adjusts to 9 feet in height. Unit is constructed primarily of steel with brass and aluminum components. This piece was stripped to bare metal, polished and converted to accommodate regular household bulbs. The fixture was manufactured by Photogenic Machine Co. of Ohio under the name Vari•Beam which thrives to this day. Ornate and handsome piece - $750
