I bought this lamp at auction a few years ago, it was made by an English company called Metek in the 40s or 50s. It’s a travelling lamp, it has a spring clip in the base to clamp it onto a desk,or bedside table, and as you can see it folds up. The peeling paint was becoming a bit of a nuisance so I cleaned it up and resprayed it and I’m very pleased. I decided not to hammer all the dents out as I wanted to keep a bit of its history on show. #Metek #retro #lighting
