Star Trek TOS inspired Lamp

I grew up in a SciFi household. And one of the greatest Science fiction universes of all time is Star Trek. Growing up I watched every episode I could of every Star Trek show, From the original series (SPOCK RULES) all the way through Voyager and beyond. So I jumped at the chance when someone asked me to make a Star Trek inspired lamp (I actually made two but more to come on that later)

This lamp is my send up to the series that started it all, My Star Trek The Original Series Lamp!

On the first panel you have an outline of the USS Enterprise  NCC-1701, BUT when lit up you can see the face of the ever adventurous helmsman Mr. Sulu within the ship. This is a pattern i used throughout the lamp as you can see.

The Second Panel has a similar Enterprise silhouette but this time with Lt Uhura silhouetted within the ship. I was thinking of using Doctor McCoy but how can we overlook one of the first strong female characters on television (Who by the way made TV history with the first bi-racial kiss (CPT Kirk who else!) on television- Yep that's right you just learned some Star Trek Trivia you can bring up at your next party while hopefully showing off your new lamp ;) )

Now for the next two panels, I kept the same theme but switched out the enterprise for the Star Fleet Insignia worn by the crew on their intrepid 4 year mission.

The 3rd panel shows the Star Fellt Insignia but when lit up you see CPT. Kirk "shine through as it were (sorry about the pun)

Finaly we have one of the most beloved characters in all of Star Trekdom! What lamp from the original series could possible exist without the Science officer and best friend?, The ever logical green blooded MR. SPOCK!!!:)

For the Top I put just the Enterprise flying away to new adventures but used the Star Fleet insignia as the inspiration for the negative space that the ship is flying through.

Please understand that each lamp is custom made, so the wood grains or shade will vary from the picture. But I do work to make sure each side matches on any individual lamp. Each Lamp is approximately 6” on a side and 12” tall. Each comes with a 6’ cord with an inline switch. The socket is for a regular bulb (not included). The wire is rated to 75 watts but to avoid heat buildup only high efficiency CFL or LED bulbs around 5 watts (60+ Watt equivalent) should be used. The wood is 5mm pine or sandalwood ply with a rice paper backing to provide for a wonderful contrast. The wood ships unfinished to allow the natural grain to shine, But you can stain or otherwise finish the wood relatively easily to your liking. I designed them so that once the panels are slid into the base the base cannot be removed, but for bulb changing the top can be pulled off relatively easily. Each Lamp can be made and shipped usually within three days to a week of ordering. But that time really depends on how many orders I am working on. I ship using USPS priority with the US...I can ship internationally for special requests but the shipping rate will depend on the details.

The entire Lamp is designed to be flat packed for ease of shipping but is simple to assemble.
