i got it 2nd hand but new. i tried to put my hp into the lamp to take the sticker but cant because of the angle. replicas for lamps wont really have the sticker which will of course state the wattage and made from where. lets say the replica's have the sticker too, then you can either look at the louis poulsen font and lastly the quality. the metal shade used is evenly powder coated and has that solid feel. its like when u touch a fake lv, you can feel something not right or the colour is just not right. i tried to help to find the sticker online but cant find any. that said, of course you should buy from an ebay seller with 100% rating. if its a fake, you can always raise the issue up with paypal and prove it through pictures. i have had my fair share of fake products and can say that i got back my money 6 out of 6 cases. if there are other forumers here who can, pls by all means post the LP silver sticker. -

again...another DIY Bedside Lamps we wanted to create a bedside lamp that could have the height adjusted anytime we wanted. we bought pulleys and drilled it to the ceiling. we also bought original Louis Poulsen 4/3 pendant lamps. money worth spending... the light doesnt shine into your eyes when u look directly into it. in the picture below, you are seeing the lamp on the left side of the bed. so seeing her mood, my wife can put her hand behind the mirror and unhook the wire (got some kind of hook behind the mirror), lower the lamp and hook it back at a lower level. -
wow..check out how far in the sunlight reach. Bright and Hot at the same time!

oh ho ho. MAMPUS! maybe go industrial area, rental cheaper, lights cheaper? pls update us on the new address? (this address was updated last yr june) I want to save it into my address book. if u went to geylang, did u go heritage for the bathroom stuffs? or TOYO lighting too? i still feel that their items are cheaper. the low profit margin standard metal tracks were $2 off market price. -

29.9k for the reno. go with contractor...will surely save 2-3k at least. since you have your own ideas, dont rely on IDs. their designs more or less are copied. only a few are exceptions. yes Alan has been in this line long enough to comment on colour schemes and give feedback on the layouts. there is one blog last yr by someone thanking Alan for helping with the overall feel of the flat. yes he was very chill about me outsourcing air-con and one built in wardrobe to outsiders. i also did tell him i wanted to go expo and compare his prices with theirs. in the end, his was the same (supreme laminates) and so i went with him because he will coordinate for me. he even know the supreme sales man came down and marketed their products to me. i was watching for his body language but none of it was upsetting/angry. i think it will help if u state clearly u ALREADY have contacts for certain parts and also maybe say that you will go with Alan if he can match their quotation. then isnt it better to let him coordinate? -

our furniture from germany also came in. had to plan the timing properly. pencil leg chairs with studded fabric. a few years ago, we went to california to hunt down a white deer. now, he is our prize and above our dining area. (we chose industrial theme so we can ignore the trunkings...lululu) -

alright, completed 1 glass pane. couch came from grafunkt! all the panes are up. view of the study room from kitchen side. close up shot of the couch. initially didnt want to spend much on the couch but cant find any that fits what we wanted until we popped by grafunkt. then, it was money no issue.
