Atom Lamp by Sam Rush steel and brass tribute to the 1950's Atomic Whirl pattern

About the Item

The origin of this design has been slightly convoluted. The base and body of the lamp was inspired by the very top of the pagoda in Kew Gardens London. Having made the base, Sam Rush left it for some months before before the recognition that the "Atomic Whirl" symbol made for the perfect marriage. Solidly made from 304 stainless steel and brass, this lamp has been widely appreciated and is also requested in pairs. Typical of lamps made by Sam Rush each lamp in made made by Sam Rush as he deliberately does not employ staff or outsource work. The result of these decisions means that not only are lamps are made to a very high standard, but due to the time needed to build each piece, are in effect of limited edition. Each lamp carries Sam Rush's makers mark. Lamps are UKCA certificated, compatible with CE and to LU standards

This ceiling light ever entertains with three rockets orbiting the moon (respect is due here to Antoine de Saint-Exupery) whilst serving the purpose of lighting a room from 3 x bulbs. The ceiling rose is an additional small crater pitted planet. It is worth noting that this design can be hugely increased in size to suit the space it is being hung As with all of Sam Rush's space series, lamps are made with mixing stainless steel with brass. The differing properties of these dissimilar metals have a surprisingly pleasing effect, with the additional advantage of improving with age. The expectation is for all Sam Rush lamps...
