Upcycled and repurposed vintage theatre lighting
Theatre lights make an amazing addition to your home, when mounted on a wooden tripod they create an industrial but elegant atmosphere. They are great to use as decorative room lights, reading lamps or to light up your favourite piece of art.
Theatre lights tend to have a very high powered halogen bulb sometimes 500 or even 1,000 watts. We can convert vintage theatre lights to make then suitable for use in a domestic setting by restoring them and replacing the bulb holders to enable them to take modern LED bulbs which are more efficient and create less heat making them perfect to use int he home.
We have a passion for all things that light up, we see the wonderful in old redundant light fixtures and bring them back to life.
We specialise mainly in rewiring and repurposing old and vintage theatre lights such as Strand Patt 123, Strand Patt 137 and Furse Theatre lights, CCT, Pulsar and other models of theatre spotlights. But we are happy to consider rewiring most types of light fittings, including chandeliers, wall lights and table lamps. We make them work again and bring them up to modern electrical standards.
What we don't do is strip the paint off and polish them, wherever possible we like to preserve and protect the beauty of the original paintwork, its so amazing to see an old light brought back to life in it's original condition.
