Hollywood Starlight Stripped, Blasted, Oiled and Converted

This newly dismantled, sandblasted and oil-sealed, Mole Richardson vintage “Baby Solar” is the studio lamp typically seen on Hollywood movie sets. It has a 6 inch Fresnel lens, fully functioning spot to flood-type beam adjustment, a wheeled, fully adjustable stand and reconditioned shutters (barn doors).  It has been reconfigured to illuminate with a 60w household bulb instead of the intensely hot original 500w. variant.

Handsome and elegant, it will flatter any residential or commercial venue - adds visual drama to architectural features and/or artistic décor. Lists on Etsy and 1stDibs for hundreds even thousands more - $650

Redefined One-of-a-kind Designed With Musically Inclined in Mind

This brand new, one-of-a-kind lighting fixture is fabricated from a repurposed, metal snare drum secured on a chromed, tubular column and mounted on a substantial, black marble base. The lamp stands just over 5 feet tall and rests on plastic pads to prevent floor damage.The unit is lit by 3 standard, household bulbs and operated by an illuminated foot switch. A sure focal point whether in a commercial or residential venue - pendant and table drum light variations are available as well as an array of other different styles of fixtures ranging from classic to steampunk - all designed and hand made in my Corktown studio.This unit - just $650.
