Miniature machinists light

Era: 1960s

English machinists work light with integral table clamp. The original label and factory finish are so characterful, that we've left this one just as it was when it came off the production line all those years ago.

Any pre-wired lights are then rewired, tested and certified in line with electrical safety standards BS EN 60598. That way you have a light you can rely on every day, for decades to come.
