Greetings!

February has seen us coming in from the cold with our exciting communist-era East German and Czech factory lighting finally really coming through and hitting the shelves. We've spent 3 months perfecting our refurbishment and wiring technique on the Communist tube lights and we're very excited to be able to finally offer them for sale. We've also been fortunate enough to acquire some fantastic Art-Deco hallstands from Freemasons Hall in the City of London, one of the finest Art-Deco buildings in Britain. Plenty more exciting stock is in the wings and going online over the coming days and weeks....
