Rewired and ready to hang. Nickel over brass fixture with Bryant porcelain socket. The ceiling mount and chain have a nickel color painted finish. The shade is beautiful pressed glass with gorgeous details that catch the light, which gives it the look of cut glass. No chips or cracks in the glass, which is amazing for it being almost 100 years old! The nickel over brass fixture has some light wear to the nickel with a little brass showing through. The porcelain socket has been cleaned and is working great, with a little original glue residue present on the porcelain (and one has a tiny chip in the socket, not noticeable when in use). The metal chain has a nickel colored painted finish, and the new wiring is braided through the chain very artistically. Uses one standard-base light bulb up to 60 watts, or use an LED bulb for any brightness you like as they use low wattage for bright light. Bulb and ceiling mount screws not included. This beautiful antique is from a large antique lighting collection in Fenton, Michigan – see and watch our store for more from this fantastic collection. Here are details about the restorer. The late Bob Daly was a marathon runner and worked in his family’s burglar alarm business until he started his own antique lighting restoration business in Fenton, Michigan in the 1980’s: “Historic Lighting Restoration Services and Sales”. He was restoring antique lighting for almost 40 years. This beautiful light was thoughtfully and skillfully restored by Bob to the tiniest detail. From new wiring to cleaning to touching up, buffing and polishing, Bob was a master at the details. He loved what he did and was excited to share these restored works of art with the next generation. He worked with loving care, and you can be proud to own one of his restorative works of art. We are certainly proud to have acquired his amazing collection, as we also restore and sell antique lighting and love to share it with all of you who want true antique pieces that have historic personality in your homes and buildings. Many thanks to Bob’s wife, Luce, for contacting us and allowing us to share his collection with the world! Width of glass shade: 8. Total height including ceiling mount is approximately 35 1/2. (You can remove chain links to shorten it, if desired). The pendant itself is approximately 11 1/2 tall (shade, socket and loop that connects to the chain). The ceiling mount has a 5 1/4 diameter.
