Whenever I come across one of these old devices that no longer work, I always wonder if there is anything I can do to it to give it a new purpose.

Full description
This vintage 1940s GPO (Genral Post Office) GEC (General Electric Co.; London) multimeter has been beautifully upcycled into a striking and stylish lamp with an antique style light fitting and an oversized dimmable globe shaped LED bulb. This lamp would look great as a statement piece in a livingroom, bedroom, office, bar, restaurant, or any other area.
The multimeter is still in it's original leather case and has been fitted with a metal antique style E27 lamp fitting and comes with an oversized globe vintage Edison style LED light bulb. These Edison style LED bulbs use up to 90% less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs, and have up to 30,000 hours lifespan.
The lamp has an antique style flexible goosneck arm so that the light can be repositioned, and is also fitted with a vintage style brown braided flex cable with an inline switch, a metal antique style cord grip, and a 3amp British plug. All fittings are genuine British parts, all hand-wired to a high, professional standard.
The oversized globe bulb is bright but it can be dimmed to create the correct level of brightness for your room by plugging the lamp into a dimmer plug (not included).
This is an original vintage item, so there is naturally some natural wear and tear which adds to the character of the lamp.
All electrical parts are new, and work has been carried out to a professional standard.
Maximum height with arm upright and including bulb is approximately 63cm.
