Architectural Digest has found Radio-guy.com and featured us in the June 2010 “Special Country Comfort Issue”. The article reads… “What’s at the Radio? The offbeat and the funky—scientific models and instruments, old radios even early diving helmets—are part of the trove at Radio-guy, dealer Steve Erenberg’s Westchester County, New York, business. Among Erenberg’s unusual finds […]
Double X-Ray Lamp with Japanned Finish
This as very unique lamp… It has two matching 5.5″ diameter mirrored X-Ray shades that can be angled up or down. The metal stand is copper-washed brass and has a wild original Japanned finish. The stand also telescopes from 22″ all the way to dramatic table lamp height of 43″ tall. It’s rewired with heavy […]
Beautiful antique porcelain bowl lamps
We just found these off-white glassed 8″ diameter bowl fixtures. There are only 3 and we’ve never seen another example. They’re shown as ceiling lamps but take on a unique modern look when mounted to the wall as a sconce. The shade and canopies are all cast as one piece and show a beautiful clean […]
Cast iron exoskeleton frame lamp
This is a very interesting skeletal cast iron pendent lamp… It’s also a matching pair. The milk glass disc shades have 10″ diameters and are held in a complex industrial frame. I’d guess that they date to the 1920’s. You can find this lamp plus other odd industrial lamps in the EarlyElectrics “Unique” section… $2400 […]
X-Ray Tube Table Lamp… Steampunk Style!
At EarlyElectrics.com there’s a whole 6 page section just for unique lighting. This one-of-a-kind lamp fits that category perfectly. Created from a very early scientific X-Ray tube shield and fitted to a cast iron tripod base… It’s a perfect example of Steampunk style. Standing over 20″ tall this lamp/sculpture makes a striking display. We have […]
8 Large Impressive Black Porcelain Domed Pendent Lamps
We discovered these 8 dramatic pendent lamps on our last buying trip to Eastern Europe. All have a jet black baked on porcelain finish over a white interior. These large and impressive domed lamps have a 16.5″ diameter. I’m guessing the collection dates from the 1940’s but the condition is unused and fresh. The porcelain […]

1910 X-Ray Tube Stand – Converted To Floor lamp
This is an original and untouched 1800’s X-Ray tube stand. The 3 cast iron claw foot legs are signed “Campbell Brothers”. The stand and articulated arm are chunky hand turned fittings. The tightening threads are also wood and a typical detail found on the earliest electrical medical or scientific apparatus. The stand all by itself […]
Collection of Flat Mirrored Shades
These flat disc 8.5″ mirrored shades take the exposed bulb esthetic to another level. They allow a full view of an antique or reproduction Edison bulb and reflect it as well. The patina on the metal as well as the cut mirrors are an important part of the whole look. It gives these lamps a […]
