The beauty and practicality of electric lights, with the grace and charm of a faithfully recreated gas light. Gas shades are held by a nicely pierced 4" gas fitter. This would be from the later Victorian era, when the 4" wide flame burner was available. Then as now, these put out a good amount of light, up to 200 watts with incandescent bulbs, more with CF bulbs.
Available in five finishes: brass, antiqued brass, pewter, oil rubbed bronze, or nickel plated brass. Beautiful and unexpected for a modern bathroom or hallway, practical for any period home by using our variety of 4" glass shades.
Shades are sold separately. Fixture uses 4" fitter shade. We picture 068G as a suggestion. With our shade fitters, fixture may be hung with the shades up, as it would have been when using gas, or shades down, for better task lighting for a work surface or vanity.
If you'd like an On/Off switch added to the base, we can provide this custom installation for only $25.00. Please click the "Yes" option in the "Add Switch?" menu to add the switch to your shopping cart.
Pictured here also are a few ideas for complementary fixtures. We show a single gas sconce, 703-GAS , great for bedside, hallways, and bathroom. A two-light pendant is gas fixture 712-DGS-EP. For a more formal chandelier, see 714-QGS-CH.
If your home is 1895 or more recent, you can also use "transitional" fixtures, which mix gas "up" lights and electric "down" lights.
