543-SJX-SA Some of the earliest gaslight fixtures were in candle form, using a porcelain candle and drip saver just like this. Electricity wasn't always reliable when it was introduced, however, in the transitional lighting period. Many fixtures offered both, and this is a particularly charming design. This would be a great hall light or bathroom light now, as it was then. This "J" or Diamond design originated with Sechrist of Colorado, between 1910 - 1920.
