At SwankyLamp, our love affair with Tilley lamps began at a young age during camping adventures with cubs and scouts. We were entrusted with the task of cleaning, servicing and polishing the brass of these iconic British lamps every six months, a rite of passage that shaped us on our journey to adulthood. The hard work paid off as we embarked on incredible trips and enjoyed unforgettable nights illuminated by the warm glow and gentle hiss of a fleet of beautiful Tilley lamps.
Those memories of nighttime walks, holding the lamps in hand, and sharing spine-chilling stories with friends, are etched in our minds. The moving shadows cast by these remarkable lamps added an extra layer of excitement to our tales. At SwankyLamp, our mission is to revive these extraordinary Tilley lamps with modern coatings, attracting a new generation of enthusiasts who appreciate the retro charm and functionality of these British relics. Rest assured, these lamps will seamlessly blend into today’s modern surroundings, adding a touch of nostalgia and elegance.
Whether you’re in search of a complete lamp, a tank to build your own, or wish to give your beloved lamp a fresh new finish, SwankyLamp will deliver the highest quality refinishing services. Join us in reliving the nostalgia, creating new memories with these magnificent British engineered Tilley lamps.
