Vintage Soviet TAN-6 Bakelite Telephone Lamp, Handmade Retro USSR Desk Light

Handmade in Ukraine from an authentic Soviet TAN-6 black Bakelite rotary telephone. This one-of-a-kind desk lamp preserves the original handset, distinctive Cyrillic dial and classic telephone body while giving the vintage object a second life.

The handset is supported by a copper tube covered with the coiled telephone cable. A vintage Soviet Bakelite E27 lamp holder is fitted inside the handset; it also accepts E26 bulbs. The included 4 W bulb casts a warm glow. An inline switch on the power cord controls the light.
