eBay watch: Large 1960s Glo floor lamp

Glo

As a rule, we only tend to feature eBay items with a relatively low starting price, unless the item is particularly distinctive. We're classing this large 1960s Glo floor lamp as one of those exceptions.

It's a wonderful space age design, probably from the 60s, but possibly sneaking into the early 1970s. According to the seller, it was designed by 'H.TH.J.A. Busquet for Hala, Zeist, Netherlands', with the label still on the lamp.

Standing around 90cm tall, the ball rests on a lacquered steel tube stand, with all the electrics said to have been checked and in 'perfect working order'. Condition is apparently 'wonderful' too. £339 is the price – not cheap, but we don't think you'll see another for some time.

1960s Santa and Cole Pie de Salon floor lamp by Jaume Sans

Pie

Cool, classy and indeed classic, that's the Santa and Cole Pie de Salon floor lamp by Jaume Sans.

From the early part of the decade as you might have guessed, this 1963 design offers up an adjustable leather-covered brass stem, which opens out into a base with three points of support. On top of all that is the shade, which is available in three different shapes and in either stitched beige cardboard, natural ribbon or white linen.

Prices vary depending on our finish, but start at £690.
