Let There Be Light

This lamp base was £5 from a young woman in my village. She had bought it to paint, but had not got round to doing it.  Lucky for me! It is very heavy, possibly oak with lovely reeding on the stem. However, it was dark brown and all the detail could not be seen.
It is painted in Annie Sloan French Linen, one coat, and dry brushed with Old White before waxing with Annie Sloan clear wax.
