Why is it
difficult to find pairs of bedside cabinets?
Before the
implementation of electricity, lighting was by overhead gas light or oil
lamp. Reading was generally done before retiring for the night as falling
asleep while reading by oil lamp could have disastrous results. Without a
bedside light, clock radio or book there was little need for a bedside
cabinet.
Why are your
lights done mainly in antique brass finish?
The
formulation for brass has changed over time. This change in
formulation has meant that new brass is brighter and more gold in colour
than old brass. Also all new brass has a coating of lacquer on it whereas
old brass had no lacquer and so would gradually darken. Our finish
replicates that old brass look but with a coating of lacquer over it.
