… for fans of the 50’s, a fan of the fifty’s… newly repurposed and now converted to a unique, one-of-a-kind floor lamp. This Sea-breeze model 5121 articulated floor fan was originally manufactured right here in Toronto, way back when. It has been dismantled, cleaned, waxed and its interior has been reconfigured to accommodate its conversion to a 5 chandelier bulb light fixture. Turns off and on via a click switch and comes replete with a generous length of cord.
It is 13.5” in width, 9” front to back, stands 4ft. and extends to 6. It has a 14sq.” footprint. For 70 years old it has a great glossy patina thanks to a fresh carnauba waxing. Can’t get much more attractive than this… yours for a mere pittance of $425.
If you like “different”, I try not to disappoint. You can check out the many other light fixtures and chandeliers I’ve design/built by an arranged visit to my humble Corktown studio literally a minute’s walk above Toronto’s famous Distillery District.
Note: No, the lights don’t revolve :)
