Welcome to IRON GRIP Restoration!

Oil lamp of 1940s was my second discovery, which I found in my grandfather's attic.
I don’t exactly know, who is the real manufacturer of this lamp, the only thing I found about lamp was it Lamp Factory (the exact name is unknown) production of 1940s.

The lamp had a lot of visual disadvantages: paint was peeled, a fair amount of rust, dirt, soot, and the lack of a glass bulb.

So I was very upset about glass flask lacking, but after looking for a week on the Internet, I was lucky enough to meet the person who sold me the missing element of the restored object.

When removing rust and paint covering, I used a so called "coral disc". It consists of nylon fibers with abrasive particles, which allows me to clean without the metal structure disturbing.

I start to paint the lamp, after cleaning and degreasing the metal . But a simple painting was too boring for me, so I considered to decorate it with various patterns and lines. It took a long time to find a stencil with such small patterns. The solution was to use separately cut pieces of paper napkin. The process was very specialised, so I excluded it from the video.

As a result, the lamp acquired a vintage look, and it looks like a lamp of the Tsarist times ...
