The Cask & Core - Signature Series
$225.00
The Cask & Core- Signature Series | isn't just a lamp; it’s a mechanical tribute to the spirits we savor and the stories they tell.
Functional Art. Industrial Spirit. Your Story
Born from a blend of rugged industrialism and refined craftsmanship, this build-to-order piece transforms your favorite bourbon bottle into a permanent fixture of your home’s landscape.
The Mechanical Soul
The true character of the Signature Series is found in the interaction. We’ve replaced standard plastic switches with a custom, integrated pipe switch hand-fabricated directly into the iron frame. It’s functional art at its most tactile—mechanical engagement built for those who appreciate the "click" of the switch.
Commissioned by Hand
Every element of your lamp is curated to complement the bottle it houses:
- The Piece de Resistance: The heart of the build is the glass itself. Choose from our CORE Collection of curated distillery favorites—like Buffalo Trace, Weller, or Elijah Craig—or send us Your Own Bottle to have a personal milestone transformed into a permanent heirloom.
The Foundation: Set upon a base of reclaimed bourbon barrels, anchored by a decorative metal barrel hoop that echoes the heritage of the distillery.
The Hardware: A metal shell E12 Candelabra socket—available in Black, Antique Brass, or Copper—features a porcelain interior for unmatched durability and safety.
The Connection: Your choice of designer twisted fabric cords—from the earthy Riverbed Cotton to the lustrous Copper Kettle Rayon—finished with a matching antique replica plug in Black or Brown.

The Glow
We’ve paired this build with aT8 LED Edison bulb. Its slim profile glides into the neck of nearly any 750ml or 1L bottle, casting a 2100K "sunset" amber glow. This specific warmth is designed to catch the lingering oak-tints of the glass and the fine details of the label, creating an atmosphere that is as smooth as the bourbon itself.
Finished Dimensions: Approximately 18"H x 10"W x 15"D (varies by bottle selection)
Finished Weight: Between 8- 14lbs
