  • Camera wall lights

    Upcycled Camera wall lights designed and handmade by Stage Left Lux .bespoke feature lighting handmade in Derbyshire using upcycled and repurposed materials. Upcycled vintage camera wall lights We were asked to turn some old vintage Kodak cameras in to a pair of unique wall lights. Vintage Kodak camera wall lights Stage Left Lux were recently commissioned by a customer to create a pair of wall lights out of a pair of old Kodak Brownie Cameras. The cameras belonged to the customers dad so were of sentimental value, so it was key to be able to create a special pair of lights that would be sympathetic to the cameras and provide lasting memories whilst serving the purpose of providing a useful light source. The brief: Create a pair of lamps out of two vintage cameras. The lights were to be a pair as they will be used as bedside lamps The lamps needed to be wall mountable To be wired using ‘Kodak yellow’’ vintage style power cable Early on in the design stage we thought it would be a brilliant idea if the lights were somehow mounted on tripods, this would allow the lamps to be adjustable in order for them to be used as reading lights. We obtained a pair of miniature camera tripods and mounted these on small wooden shelves to create a wall mountable base. The light fitting was to be fitted into the camera flash, which provided a reflector to create a spotlight type effect. This posed some challenges as the camera flashes were a small size, we decided to use G4 LED bulbs which provide a bright light source but are small in size. G4 LEDs run on a 12 volt power supply – this meant we needed to incorporate a low voltage transformer somewhere. To do this we added a junction box to contain the transformer this was also used to house the switch gear to turn the lamps on and off. The junction box could then be then tucked away neatly under the shelf to conceal it. The end result was a pair of unique wall lights which were beautiful in design, stylish and practical.

  • Upcycled Sewing machine Steampunk lamp by Stage Left Lux lighting shop

    Stage Left Lux was approached by a customer who owns an old antique Singer Sewing Machine to see if we could convert it into a table lamp to give it a new purpose and to provide a feature for her art studio. Bespoke Singer sewing machine converted into a steampunk style lamp Taking your old unused objects, generating ideas and making unique feature lighting. Stage Left Lux was approached by a customer who owns an old antique Singer Sewing Machine to see if we could convert it into a table lamp to give it a new purpose and to provide a feature for her art studio. The customer is an artist involved with embroidery and upholstery. The brief: Industrial steampunk Use lots of popper pipe Keep it simple Two lights at various positions Cause no damage to the sewing machine I explored several different options and sent the customer various sketches and ideas, the customer came to my workshop to discuss the designs and we agreed a final look and feel for the sewing machine lamp. I was able to add a copper pipe frame with two lamp fittings which were positioned at different positions to highlight different areas of the sewing machine and compliment its industrial heritage with the steampunk style of the copper pipe and brass fittings. Because we were fitting two lights, I used one unswitched bulb-holder, a switched bulb holder with a further external switch on the power cable, this enabled the option of having both lights lit or just one of them, enabling different lighting effects to be achieved. I was able to attached the copper pipe frame to the sewing machine using holes that were already in the machine, causing no damage apart from one hole which needed to be filled in order to allow the mains cable to leave the lamp to the plug. The end result was a really cool industrial steampunk lamp which highlights and celebrates the history of the antique singer sewing machine.

  • Restored Vintage Theatre Lighting by Stage Left Lux lighting shop

    We restore and rewire all kinds of old lamps to modern standards but at the same time retaining their charactoristic charm. Restored theatre lighting, transformed into beautiful vintage style feature lamps for your home I've always had a huge passion for the theatre, and especially scenic design and lighting effects. Over the last 10-20 years there has been a huge shift from using traditional incandescent lamps (bulbs) to the use of LED (Light emitting diode). You may recognise the LED as being the red standby light on your TV. Recently there has been major advances in LED technology, LED's are smaller than traditional incandescent lamps, they are more energy efficient and don't get as hot - this means that casings for theatrical lights and spotlights can be made smaller and lighter and are becoming more affordable. Also colour changing and colour mixing technologies with LED lights means that traditional methods to produce coloured lighting effects such as coloured filter gels and colour wheels are now redundant. Modern theatre lights with moving lantern heads mounted on motorised bases means that large traditional follow spots which were moved by hand by a lighting operator are also no longer required. Theatres up and down the country are now upgrading their lighting systems which means lots of beautiful old theatre lights are being disposed of many of them are sadly simply thrown in a skip or weighed in as scrap metal. We can upcycle and transform old theatre lights to turn them into a vintage lighting feature for your home At Stage Left Lux we've made it our mission to save and preserve some of our wonderful theatrical history, by saving old theatre lights preserving them, rewiring them and turning them into beautiful feature lights for your home. Theatre lights come in many different shapes, sizes and styles depending on their intended use and make an attractive vintage lamp. From large flood lights which were to wash the stage with coloured light to aerodynamic spotlights fitted with various types of lenses from plain convex lenses which were to produce a narrow beam of concentrated light perfect for lighting individual performers or even shining a beam of light onto a mirror ball. To beautiful Fresnel lenses which produce a soft edged circle of light. At Stage Left Lux we like to keep the integrity of the theatre lights that we restore, we will rewire using authentic vintage style braided cable, we will also keep the original paint work and colours. There were two major players in the British theatre lighting industry; Strand Lighting Company founded in 1914 in London and FWJ Furse Lighting Company based on Nottingham, now owned by CCT lighting Both of these companies had a huge range of iconic designs and like all good rivals challenged each other to do big and better things, and producing their own versions - such as the spotlight model Strand Patt 23 and Furse's version the Furse model SPR profile spotlight. We told you they looked similar!! The designer of the Strand Patt23 - was Morgan McLeod he originally designed aeroplanes hence the beautiful aerodynamic curved body of the theatre lantern. Strand Patt23 Furse model SPR If you've got an old vintage theatre light that you would like to restore or rewire, get in touch with us. As many theatres are starting to upgrade their old lighting systems. Some of these sadly are simply thrown into a skip, but others are salvaged and saved. You can often pick up old theatre lights in junk shops and antiques centres and they are normally very affordable if they are in their original condition. In their original condition the wiring on theatre lamps may be old and unsave and they are often fitted with very powerful bulbs which are not suitable for use in a domestic setting. Restored theatre lights can either be mounted on a tripod as a floor-standing lamp perfect as an ambient reading light, wall mounted on a bracket or even ceiling mounted which is great for illuminating artwork. Stage Left Lux can sympathetically repair, rewire and restore old theatre lights, by replacing bulb holders with modern equivalents and rewiring to make them safe for use in the home. Here's an old Furse SPR Theatre light that we transformed from a rusty barn find into a beautiful tripod lamp.

Bespoke custom ceiling light Stage Left Lux, design and build bespoke feature lighting. I have just completed this beautiful bespoke ceiling light for one of our customers. I was recently approached by a fellow trader whilst at a market in Burton-on-Trent. Julie, asked if I could create a ceiling light for her based on an idea she had for a spider-like design pendant light, using upcycled glass jars as lightshades. We discussed ideas and plans and I was able to draw some sketches with some ideas, it was exactly what Julie had in-mind. The parts such as the ceiling rose, cabling and fixing accessories for the light were ordered and I even installed the light in Julie’s living room at her home in Sutton-in-Ashfield.

  • Jonnie Walker Bottle bespoke lamp | Stage Left Lux

    A unique lamp made from an upcycled Johnnie Walker Whiskey Bottle - the Brief was to cause no damage to this bottle, read more about what we did to convert this empty bottle into a stunning desk light! We can design and build bespoke ceiling lights, wall lighting, and table lamps to suit your style. Johnnie Walker Whiskey bespoke upcycled bottle lamp If you’re looking for something to do with your old household objects speak to Stage Left Lux to see how we can help. We can transform most household objects into incredible lights for your home, we can upcycle your old unwanted items into bespoke feature lamps, giving them a new useful purpose. The brief for this bespoke feature light We were asked if we could do something special with this Johnnie Walker Whiskey bottle, to turn it into a unique feature light for our customer, Richard to use on his desk. The bottle had sentimental value attached to it, so the main focus was to keep the bottle in original condition and cause no damage to it whilst converting it into a lamp. Richard wanted to have the bulb concealed inside the bottle if possible. How did we do it? The brief was to cause no damage to the bottle whilst upcycling it into a lamp. The customer, wanted to the bulb to be inside the bottle, allowing light to shine through the beautiful turquoise blues coloured glass. We have put bulbs inside bottles before either by suspending the bottle from a copper pipe frame or by drilling a hole in the base of the bottle. However we were unable to suspend the bottle as it was a cork rather than a screw-top meaning overtime the bottle would slip off the cork, and we were unable to drill the bottle as we had been instructed to cause no damage to the bottle whilst making this lamp. We needed to fit the bulb holder to the cork enabling the bulb to be inside the neck of the bottle and somehow safely run the cable from the power supply to the top of the bottle whilst keeping things neat and tidy with no ugly cables being viable. To over-come this, we created a wooden base and top supported by copper columns. This allowed the power supply to entre the wooden base and the power supply to travel up through the copper columns and be safely concealed out of sight. We used thin braided cable which neatly jumps out of the wooden top and re-enters through the cork to the bulb holder. The wooden base and top were given a blue washed finish to show off the grain of the timber and compliment the colour of the glass bottle. The overall result was this beautiful industrial steampunk effect table lamp which our customer is over the moon with and has placed pride of place in his home office!
