Illuminated Microphone

This object is immensely popular with numerous musicians, studios and music venues. If you find yourself irresistibly tempted to sing into it when it is on, you will not be the first. Recent informal studies show that it increases singing ability by 27%.
The base is weighted, and is finished on the bottom with a durable pressed foam neoprene rubber to protect surfaces. The grille screen is held securely in place with fasteners which may be unscrewed to allow for replacement of the bulb, some 3,000 hours of operation in the future.

Illuminated Rotating Manning Bowman Fan
$425.00
This piece is one of a very few rotating fan lights in the world, originating exclusively from Illuminated Objects.
You may see it in action below.
It features four dimmable 30w tube style Edison bulbs in place of fan blades. A separate switch allows the bulbs to rotate at a gentle speed of 30 rounds per minute, and the level of light may be adjusted while it rotates. A rotary knob rheostat switch controls the level of light, from quite bright to just barely visible.
This device was originally a mid-century Emerson desk fan. It casts light in all directions, making it particularly ideal for open spaces. It is ideal for an office, den, bedroom, living room or shelf. It casts a very warm candlelight-like color, and can be bright enough to read by.
The Illuminated Desk Fan's bulbs are easily and quickly replaced by removing the fan cage.
The device measures 13" tall, 10" wide and 6" deep, and is all-metal construction. All electrical materials used are certified, and all connections are designed for safety and durability. The unit has been thoroughly tested for operational reliability.

Illuminated Radio Speaker
$345.00
The Illuminated Radio Speaker is a 1920s vintage antique repurposed to feature four 40w Edison spiral-filament bulbs arranged in its center interior.

Both the front screen and the rear cover are removable, allowing you to determine the best look for your particular space. Removing the rear cover allows light to be cast from both sides, ideal for an open shelf or interior wall cut-out space.
The device measures 19" tall, 16" wide, and 9" deep, and is made entirely of metal with some crackling and a few scratches in the finish, testament to its long journey to the present. All electrical materials used are UL approved, and all connections are mechanical for safety and durability. All pre-existing wiring and electronics have been removed or disabled.
