The practical bits

Availability

Available now. Price, delivery and a time to see it lit, in my first reply. Collect it from the studio in Friedrichshain, or ask about delivery.

Wiring and safety

I rewire every piece with new cables and sockets. Plugs into a normal socket.

Care

Dust with a dry cloth. The patina is part of the piece, so please don’t polish the original object. Made in my studio at Frankfurter Allee 6, Berlin.

One of the telephones

The whole shelf, all 50

Rotary phones, each one of one, that belong together on a row of tables. Each one is picked, taken apart and wired by hand; together they can light one room.

Come with your own nostalgic objects, ideas and dreams. I’ll tell you honestly if it can become a light.
