I bought this classic lamp at Ikea some years back and hang it at my little garden under the translucent roof. Everyone who saw it always ask where did I get it and that always starts a conversation on things of the work of arts. Just think how much works had been done to create this masterpiece in aluminiu. Of course it started with an idea but idea would be just be ideas unless more input are put to realise it into a consumer product like that lamp; well the discussion among us who love the work of art would continue on and on thus add to our knowledge of things of beauty like that lamp above.
Last month it did not light up as usual when switch on. I decided to find out why it kaput so I took it down and found it got corroded by rain water that drip onto it over times. I decided to do the repair myself. I dismantled the whole set, got it clean and try putting it back with a new cable set with bulb holder. a spare I happens to have in store. Since some parts had rusted it took me three days, working on it at my leisure I put it back and voila! its working like new. I then hang it at a new location. Happy indeed.
Have a nice day.
