A great quality, stylish and vintage hallway ceiling lamp consisting of the original lacquered brass canopy and housing, holding a free hand painted satin glass shade. The shade opens towards the top and it has fine hand painted black and red vertical asymmetric stripes. This lamp and chain has the original cloth-wrapped wire; it hangs 17-1/2" in total and the shade measures 7" long. It could be as early as the mid 1930s given the shade, quality and wiring - the patina and minor wear on the brass and the dryness of the cloth wiring (which remains intact and useable) certainly points to a ripe old age. This item is in excellent original condition with no chips, cracks, dents, bends, corrosion, losses, damage or repairs. All items are thoroughly and conservatively graded and all condition issues are noted; all items are secondhand and may have slight signs of gentle use. Surface shipping to the continental U.S. starts at $15 (other spots may vary) - insured is higher, and mandatory on items over $85 if paid with a credit card. Items paid with a credit card will be shipped to confirmed addresses only. We do ship internationally. All of our prices are in $US. NOTE: we do not accept PayPal.

An attractive and unusual vintage c1920s hanging hall lamp with a round lustre glass shade, made by the Lightolier company. Originally named the New York Gas and Appliance Company, they became Lightolier in 1917. "After Sunset, Lightolier," was a memorable slogan, reflecting the fact that early electric lighting was mostly used at night. The company is still in business, and this lamp is signed both on the shade and on the canopy, which has the original slogan sticker. The glass shade is 9-1/4" diameter and 6-3/4" deep. The socket mount and fittings are gilt brass, with the canopy and spider gold painted at a later date. The decorative decals are intact and the shade has a lustre finish. It has been re-wired, and it works. There is a bit of roughness on the unfinished edges of the shade, and this lamp is in excellent original condition as far as we know of, with no chips, cracks, dents, bends, corrosion, losses, damage or repairs other than noted above. All items are thoroughly and conservatively graded and all condition issues are noted; all items are secondhand and may have slight signs of gentle use. Surface shipping to the continental U.S. starts at $16 (other spots may vary) - insured is higher, and mandatory on items over $85 if paid with a credit card. Items paid with a credit card will be shipped to confirmed addresses only. We do ship internationally. All of our prices are in $US. NOTE: we do not accept PayPal.
