An unusual original vintage SOL-TAN sun/treatment lamp, featuring a substantial cream enamelled metal base, large polished aluminium reflector and adjustable lamp head.
The front retains its attractive original SOL-TAN manufacturer's badge and period toggle switch. The adjustable reflector and substantial construction give this a wonderful early-to-mid-20th-century medical, scientific and industrial appearance.
The exact model, original specification and intended application have not been confirmed.
IMPORTANT – PLEASE NOTE:
Due to the considerable age of this item and its existing electrical wiring/components, it is not being sold as an appliance ready for use and should not be connected to the mains in its present condition.
It is being sold specifically as a vintage display/collectors' piece, for complete rewiring/restoration by a suitably qualified person, or for repurposing into another decorative project.
Any existing wiring and electrical components should be regarded as requiring complete professional inspection and, where necessary, replacement/rewiring before any future electrical use.
It would make a particularly interesting vintage medical/scientific display piece, film or theatre prop, industrial interior feature, restoration project or basis for conversion into a decorative lamp.
Please see photos for exact details. The photographs form an important part of the description.
