Standard lamp looks great with fabric cord
5 out of 5 stars
Standard lamp looks great with fabric cord
Used to put back to original on a barley twist standard lamp..as the bulb holder is brass, you need a 3 core to ground.I've never used fabric wrapped before I watched YouTube videos. I wasnt happy with fraying of the fabric, which is normal so I wrapped in electric tape.
