My husband bought me a replica lacemakers lamp, its beautifully made and has
the glass bowl on top for water. I tried it out on Christmas day and was
amazed that I could work lace using it. I got it positioned so that the
small shaft of light shone just where I needed it to on the small area of
current work. I can see why they sat outside as much as possible for
natural light and I certainly wouldn't like to have to work like that all
the time. I use an angle poise lamp which shines onto the top of my pillow
and works well for me.

I've seen two demos of lacemaker's lamps. In both, I was quite
impressed by the amount of light concentrated onto the work area by a
very-low-wattage bulb (no brighter than a real candle). Certainly not
like an Ott light, but for the time....
