Vintage & Repurposed Lamps at WK
April 6, 2012 I wrote last week in a post that I have a fondness for solo chairs. I think I have a similar love for singular, vintage lamps. A quick stroll the other day through the Home store, and I snapped a few lamps that are repurposed using everyday items like spools & coffee pots. There were also some vintage alabaster lamps that I have joined with wire shades that have a fun vibe too.
Seeing the Edison bulb is my favorite part for many of these lamps.
The Lucite base adding a modern twist to this one.
Chicken wire shades have become a new favorite–combining high and low elements mixed with the alabaster.
My grandparents had a very similar coffee pot that I remember from childhood. The clever artisans I source these from making a fun lamp out of this model.
The deconstructed lamp shade on this alabaster lamp allowing for the bulb to shine through.
