Wanted to buy, Christmas tree lamp

[Susan]

Hi everyone, I know its not goo related but, can anyone help me out here, please? I'm looking to buy a ceramic Christmas tree lamp. Basically, it's a lamp in the shape of a Christmas tree that plugs in to the mains and lights up. Runs on one bulb and all the ends of the branches have a plastic coloured tip that lights up. Cannot find one for love nor money in the UK at the moment. Can anyone tell me where I can buy one from or do you even have one for sale perhaps.

Looks something like this, there are many different variations: http://cdn3.ioffer.com/img2/item/130/318/061/BaFx.jpg

Thanks very much for any help you can give me. :)

Thanks Jim, very kind of you, pitty I didn't live in the states.

Astrobaby, you're correct, they are ceramic, that's the type I'm after.

Seems they are very easy to get hold of in the states, shame I live in the UK :(

Bohdan, I'd love a two foot tall one, wonderful.

I wouldn't mind, you could readily buy them here in England a couple of years ago, they were not expensive either, shame I didn't get one then.

I will keep my eye on ebay UK and see what comes up. Cheers :)

I have two of these. Both from the late 60's, early 70's I believe. They are very fragile and can be problematic to ship. I Really love my two and was lucky to get them for super cheap. They seemed to have BOOMED that last couple of years.

Kris, like you say, they will be a nightmare to ship, that's why I'm looking for one in the UK. I never saw them here in the 70's and I've never seen any around from that age, seems the boom was not in this country at that time. They were very common around here until in the mid 2000's up until a couple of years ago, you could even buy them at our local garden centre. Same old thing though, when you want something you can never find it :)
