Vintage FKI Metamec Coronet 10 Traditional Olde English Lantern Festoon Lighting Set – LED Conversion

Description

Pictures show the exact set you will receive – this is the last 240V set we have!

Vintage FKI Metamec Coronet 10 Traditional Olde English Lantern Festoon Lighting Set, mains to low voltage transformer powered with replaceable 240VAC (Mains voltage) E14 lamps, fitted.

You can read about the history of these iconic British Made lanterns on our blog, here!

Vintage restored set, with 10 Olde English Lanterns, two each of White, Yellow, Blue, Green and Red supplied, fitted with user-replaceable mains 3W LED lamps. No headache inducing flashing settings!

Note that whilst the contents will be fully refurbished, updated to LED with a 13A plug (3A fused) and tested, the box will show some markings from long term storage.

All sets (regardless of branding), came from the same moulds and made in various UK based factories that moved from FKI at Halifax (1970’s to 1980s), to Metamec at Dereham (1980s to 1990s), and finally to the Eterna factory (1990s to close), and will be allocated to buyers at random if no choice is made on purchase. We won’t be offering the later ‘Made in China’ sets via this listing.

Tested and working. We will endeavour to keep and supply spares for these sets, including baskets and globes.

Can be used indoors and outside, these are fine for seasonal outdoor use provided (as ever with any low voltage set) the transformer is located indoors. But not just for Christmas, ideal for parties, summer gatherings and BBQs too!

You can’t buy quality like this any more – so bag a set of these while you can.
