(see photos on my website under – media)
as William Johnston also used his homes as showrooms.

I know who made this lamp, as I used to buy from Chris and re sell back in the 90s.
Chris had this shop before I moved in 1990, then he was a couple of blocks up “Lighthouse Antiques”,
haven’t seen Chris for nearly a decade, great bloke.
Anyway, it’s nice to have one in stock again.

Charlie & Jack did all the preparation months ago.
Stripped the thick sticky red/brown lacquer, removed the same applied felt and prepared for (Graeme Davidson, Woodshed Antiques) to re felt.
Sadly his son spray painted an object on the top, not realising the consequences to the finish or his bank account!
Table restored, including all chipped paint.
So happy customers.
