eBay watch: Large 1960s marble-based Golamar Italian floor lamp

Lamp

Ignore the desk and chair, they're only there to show the scale of the headline act – this large Golamar marble-based floor lamp.

Made in Italy in the 1960s, this is a huge thing – 182cm high, which over 6ft tall. All of that is stove on a weighted marble base, finished off with a plastic shade, a long lead and an on/off switched on the cable. if you have space to fill, this will certainly fill it.

According to the seller, condition is 'good', with no cracks or damage. Not a bad price right now, £50, but with some time still to go.
