When restoring older lighting it is best to replace both socket and lamp cord. | Quality Sockets for Quality RestorationsMatching Brass SocketsAntique Lamp Sockets |
Premium Antique Brass Lamp Sockets are skillfully made of heavy turned brass. They are 3 way offering 3 levels of light. The quality of these sockets is exceptional. Socket-parts screw together rather than snapping together like traditional sockets. Large brass turn knob switch matches socket.
The socket body is made of heavy turned brass, ensuring exceptional durability and an enduring high-quality look. Its finish is darkened to achieve an aged appearance, making it an ideal option for vintage and antique lamps.
The UNO threads at light bulb-end of socket, allow a 1-1/4" threaded center ring to directly screw onto socket. While this socket is compatible with most bridge lamp shades and vintage goose neck lamps there may be an occasional incompatibility between shade and socket due to slight variations in threads.
Before making any changes to electrical fixtures and/or lamps:
- Disconnect plug/wire from the electrical source.
- Turning lamp off will not protect you from electric shock.
- If you are unsure how to safely proceed contact a licensed electrician.
