Vintage demijohn lamp question

9 years ago

I am interested in purchasing what I think is referred to as a demijohn lamp that is covered in what appears to be wicker. I have found some of the demijohns themselves on eBay. However does anyone know where to then purchase the lamp kits that will fit? Don't want to purchase one if I can't then turn it into a lamp. I would love to purchase one already made into a lamp. Can anyone help steer me in the right direction? Thank you so very much.

I found this one on Amazon. I don't know if the cork is the right size for your particular bottle.

Here is a link that might be useful: Cork Bottle Lamp Kit

I have a bottle I bought and took to a small lamp repair shop in our small city. They charged about $60 to make it into a lamp, then of course I bought the shade. I'd think finding the right fit for the top would be the tricky part of DIY.

Thanks Fun and Jackson. I have found a couple of the bottles but don't want to pay 200.00 for them and on top of that have them made into lamps. Think I'm going to look around at some local antique shops and see what I can find.The search continues.
