I've been having too much free time lately so I decided to rewire some vintage lamps from the late 30's. https://www.amazon.com/cloth-wire/s?k=cloth+wire&rh=p_89%3AIndustrial+Rewind ) The cord and connector work great with my vintage lamps. a fabric-covered cord and tightly knotted underwriter's knot, while still maintaining coverage over the "live front" - as it should be. I am very satisfied with this product.
