Selling a floor lamp in Mau

Mau is a weaving town, and its powerlooms and handlooms producing sarees and dress material are the reason the town exists at its current size. Almost every part of the local economy connects back to cloth in some way.

The weaving neighbourhoods are dense and the lanes are narrow, so agree a main-road landmark for anything large. Loom work runs long hours, so an early or late meeting often suits sellers better than the middle of the day.

On anything electrical from a loom household, ask about voltage protection. Power in the weaving areas is heavily loaded and fluctuates, and motors that have run unprotected wear out well before their time.

Mau, in Uttar Pradesh, has around 280,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Lucknow, Kanpur and Ghaziabad are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

What floor lamps are worth

What lifts the price

  • Original shades in matching condition
  • Safe, modern wiring or a recent rewire

What pulls it down

  • Perished or fabric-covered original wiring
  • Torn, stained or replacement shades

Working out what yours is worth

  • Inspect the shade in daylight for tears and staining
  • Look for a maker’s mark on the base

Getting it ready

  • Inspect the plug for scorching and the cable entry at the base and the lampholder, which are the wear points.
  • Clean the shade carefully. Fabric shades mark permanently, so dust rather than wipe unless you know the material.

  • The lamp switched on, so the buyer can see it works and how it throws light
  • The base, the switch and the plug

Put in the description

  • Material of the stand and the shade, stated separately
  • Bulb fitting type and maximum wattage, from the label near the lampholder

Awkward rather than heavy. Most dismantle into a base, stem and shade, which makes them postable — but pack the shade in its own box, because it will crush against the base otherwise.

Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
