Happle Lamp

Happlelights69 
If you liked the Happle Containers we featured recently, then perhaps you will also be tempted by the Happle Lamp.

The lamp has that same bold shape, but in the lamp version, you can choose whether you have a green, red or (rather oddly) white apple. The light measures 30cm and costs just under £60, or you can have a mini version (18cm) for £35.

Buy them online from the Baltic Mill shop.

Frandsen Ball 1960s wall lights

Ball

We featured the reissue of the pendant lights some time back, but now the Frandsen Ball is back as a wall light.

It's a simple and stylish Danish design that dates back to 1969, the wall version offering up that metallic dome in a chrome or a coloured finish, with a transparent cord that also includes the on/off switch.

There's an almost endless number of colour options if you shop around, all selling for around the £53 mark.

eBay watch: Sputnik-style chrome adjustable light fitting

Sputnik

A relic from the 1960s, but this sputnik-style chrome adjustable light fitting should still look the part in the modern era. Especially if you're going for a 60s-inspired look.

Not much detail from the seller, but we can see it's a chromed light fitting with three adjustable globes for directing the light.

The whole thing is around 50cm tall without the wire, so a fairly hefty thing (high ceilings only). But if you have the space, £62.99 is a decent price.

eBay watch: 1960s Hans Agne Jakobsson-designed pine ceiling lamp

Jacob

A great piece of vintage design – and this Hans Agne Jakobsson-designed pine ceiling lamp costs next to nothing right now.

Designed by Jakobsson in the 60s or possibly early 70s, it's a great midcentury-inspired piece, made of nine concentric pine laminates circles held by three vertical pine structures and organised so that they form a gap between each other. For the light to escape obviously.

Described as being in 'very good condition' and 'in full working order', it's currently available for just 99 pence.

eBay watch: 1970s pulldown eyeball pendant light

Dropdown

Another superb vintage light on eBay – this time a 1970s pulldown eyeball pendant light.

No maker or designer is accredited, but it is presumed to be from the 1970s, as well as being a Danish design from the era. For your money, you get a 360 degree rotating shade and drop-fall cord, the shade made of chrome plated steel for serious, eye-catching appeal.

According to the seller, it's in 'excellent condition and full working order', with a 'buy it now' price of £195 being asked (although you can also make an offer). The table obviously isn't included.
