School Wall Light Weathered Copper, White Interior
Wall lights from Original BTC, Designed by Davey Lighting
Product description
Originally found in 1920s classrooms and libraries, Davey's School Wall Light features a unique hand-spun reflector and elegant swan neck. Available in either painted aluminium or copper, with different coloured interiors.
We use centuries-old techniques to create truly authentic, unprocessed lighting designs; some of which originate from East India Docks (London) in the 1880s where Davey Lighting was established.
Each of our spun shades begin life as sheet metal disc and are formed through a process called spinning. The sheets are first clamped to a formed block (reflecting the shape we want to produce) which are rotated together at high speeds. A localized pressure is supplied by hand to this spinning workpiece, causing the disc to adopt the shape of the block. The formed shade is then finished by polishing, weathering or powder coating.

Concept
A smaller version of Davey Lighting's classic School Light, produced in hand blown glass, and designed as a compact wall light fitting. The glass shades come in either opal, anthracite and clear glass, with a weathered brass arm and back plate. The anthracite and clear glass shades show off the filament exposed light bulb, a nod to this continuing lighting trend.
Davey Lighting's iconic School Light form has been repurposed in anthracite, opal and clear glass, giving the classic design a new and fresh dimension. Now available in two sizes, each glass shade is hand blown in our glass factory, and fitted with an attractive brass or weathered brass chain and ceiling rose. The anthracite and clear glass shades show off the filament exposed light bulb, a trend that continues to evolve.
