The blast damaged helmet used in this WW2 relic lamp is a genuine WW2 German M40 relic recovered from France.
As much rust as possible has been removed from the helmet while keeping the character of the relic. Any remaining rust can be kept in check with the occasional coat of Renaissance wax or beeswax. Information on relic care will be provided with the lamp.
The helmet has lots of original paint remaining.
The bayonet is a WW2 German K98 recovered from France. All rust has been removed and the pitting has been highlighted using black oxide. The bayonet has then been sealed with rust-blocking oil and wax.
The bullets are all inert WW2-era 7.92×57 polished and finished with an antique effect.
The handmade base features a polished aluminium profile at the bottom with four stacked mild steel profiles above. These have been textured and finished with a hard-wearing ceramic black coating.
The brass components have been textured and finished with an antique effect.
All remaining metalwork is stainless steel.
The lamp is supplied with a 3-mode LED flame effect bulb.
The video at the end of the gallery shows the lamp in the flame effect mode.

The lamp will operate on 80–240 volts, making it suitable for use worldwide.
The plug fitted is a UK 3-pin plug. A plug adaptor will be provided for buyers outside the UK so the lamp can be used straight away. However, it is recommended that the plug is changed to your country’s standard plug type when convenient.
