Vintage Dark Amber Glass Pendant Light With Brass Chain and Ceiling Rose
This is an absolutely gorgeous Vintage Dark Amber Glass Pendant Light With Brass Chain and Ceiling Rose. Although designed as a Monochromatic paper 908 safelight for a photographic darkroom, it would produce lovely amber/red ambient light in a domestic setting: see image of a bulb in the shade for an idea of what it might look like when lit.
- The dark amber safelight blown glass shade screws to the pendant holder and is in excellent condition with a few minor surface blemishes.
- It suspends from the original hook and chain via a matching ceiling rose also in brass coloured non-ferrous metal (probably aluminium).
- A B22 bayonet fitting light bulb is required and this is not included.
- It has been rewired with a vintage style braided cord but has not been electrically checked and will require a suitably qualified person to fit it.
Approximate Size:
- Red Glass Shade Neck Diameter: 7.7 cm
- Diameter of ceiling rose: 8.3 cm
- Current Length between hooks: 75 cm
Dating to the 1930s/40s, we believe this type of safelight originated in France.
