Cage Lamp

The most visible components of the Cage Lamp are a handle, turned by hand from hard Maple, and a wire cage which is bent from steel rod and welded around a hoop. 

The steel cage snaps onto the Maple handle, registering into fluting carved around the lampholder. 

A globe bulb is turned on or off by a tilt switch embedded in the handle.
