Re: Bauhaus
That sounds rough, haggling from charity
, but with today's prices at thrifts, I certainly admit to being very happy when they have their 50% off sales! Spectacular lamp for sure.
Re: Bauhaus
Hi Mike
I dont feel bad at all, its a German State run charity shop, the worker get paid $1.40 a hour, and have to work 40 hours a week, for 3 months, to keep their benfits.
I have since found out it was made by Kaiser Leuchten, Model no 6840, made in the 1930s, the designers at Kaiser Leuchten all attended the Bauhaus.

Re: Bauhaus
Kev, Amazing lamp, without question. I just googled what state prisoners in the US make per hour--as much as $7/hr. Yikes!
Re: Bauhaus
Hi Mike
$7 i had better not tell the Germans this otherwise they would all be flying over to commit crimes LOL
