Timberson Copper Dome Light

There are times in life when you look at something and all you can do is shake your head in absolute amazement. This is one of those times. From the moment we decided to create this custom piece, we knew it would be something distinctive. Wanted to create something that no one else has?omething that people will talk about. And as you can see, the idea blossomed from one of our best-selling Edison Lamps. And there? no other like it??.anywhere. We began with a solid copper metal base that we commissioned to be hand-spun right here in northeast Ohio. Don? know if you?e familiar with the art of metal spinning, but this is not some stamped metal part you?l find on the shelf at Walmart. If you?l look closely, you?l see slight tool marks in the raw copper that add character unseen with mass-produced lights. We then hand-rubbed and polished the finish to a nice gloss and topped it off with a light protective clear coat. Resting on top of the base, you?l find a fixed trundle that we also had custom made with black accents to create a striking combination with a ?teampunk?style in order to set it apart. We also wanted to dress-up the copper base with a custom vintage style on/off switch, so we created an exclusive three-dimensional high-relief switch cover. Very nice. All metal. Exceptional quality. It is also adorned with jet black cloth-covered twisted wire with a matching vintage-style plug. The cloth-covered wire is imitation silk and adds a distinctive flair. You don? want to hide this cord. We’re also including the 40W Nostalgic Spiral Filament Edison Bulb (pictured) at no additional charge. This bulb is awesome and adds a nostalgic, yet subtle brightness to any room. The bulb easily screws into the solid brass light socket with a Polished Copper finish. Encasing everything is a crystal clear glass dome that completes the piece. Most of the parts, pieces, and fittings were custom fabricated and the entire light stands approximately 8?tall with a 5?diameter base. It? solid inside and out?o cheap plastic or flimsy materials here. It? built to last. ++++ Please note that this is hand-crafted of solid copper, brass, finials, screws, fittings, etc. You may find scratches, bumps, dents, smudges, etc., and these imperfections are included at no additional charge. You won? find our products in the big retail stores, they are not made overseas, and certainly do not come off the assembly line. They are created, formed, and assembled by hand in our small workshop in historic downtown Amherst, Ohio to present you with spectacular shape, symmetry, and hues that are functional and well-pleasing to the eye.
