These high quality LED light bulbs use up to 90% less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs, and have up to 30,000 hours lifespan.

In keeping with the retro style, the phone lamp also comes with a vintage style black braided cable with an inline switch and a British 3amp plug. To create the correct level of brightness for your room, the lamp can be plugged into a dimmer plug (not included).

All electrical work is new and has been carried out to a professional standard.
