1950's vintage church wall lights
These striking 1950s wall lights were salvaged from the famous St Barnabas Church in Bethnal Green in East London.
Originally installed in 1957, the lights, available as both wall and ceiling options, were removed from the building during a recent period of restoration.
Found covered in six decades worth of pink paint, the skinflint team has painstakingly restored these lights to reveal the beautiful polished aluminium shades beneath.
With green braid cable and a pared back look, these elegant lights are great examples of 1950s design and perfect for bedrooms, living spaces and hallways.
