Made of authentic steel plumbing pipe and featuring malleable iron fittings Pipe Decor's convertible lamp kit converts and adjusts to your lighting needs and artistic sensibilities. Adjust the bulb brightness for reading comfort or dim it down for some quiet reflection. Pair this unique lamp with one of our end tables to make a true industrial design statement. Pipe Decor's patented 5-way malleable iron cross makes this unique design a reality. We recommend pairing your new lamp with an Edison bulb to accentuate the rustic aesthetic. You will know Pipe Decor parts and accessories when you hold them. Beauty and beast. Strength and style. This is real industrial pipe for your decoration and designs. Accept no substitutes. All our pipe and fittings come coated in a light industrial grease to prevent rusting. We highly recommend that you clean and seal each piece, before assembly, to ensure that they stay rust-free. Sealing the pipe with polyurethane spray will protect it from rust and scratches.
