ANT-1231 Edwardian Ceiling Bowl Light with Puffy Style Shades
Circa 1900-10, it has been restored to fine condition and as can be seen, makes a great statement as to the antiquity of the light.
Pretty nice to find an unusual light with shades, still in this reasonable attractive condition. Yes, there are parts that show minor marks and dents of age related living, but for the most part...this is an exceptional example of lighting with original shades. We have shown the use marks in the last picture...not bad..hardly noticeable...but full disclosure here.
Normally these lights have opal white or simple frosted shades....but here we have the Art Glass type shades that are often called Puffy after the Pairpoint works glass offerings. The design is actually “puffed” out and then hand colored. Very attractive.
For the photographs, we used low wattage bulbs to take the pictures so the automatic lens would not be blown-out by the strong light. Naturally, we you place normal bulbs into this chandelier, the shades will glow nicely and more warmly.
This chandelier has been completely re-wired in our UL shop with new sockets and all new wire in our UL listed workshop. The arrangement is that there is a one medium size bulb in the large bowl and one each in each of the three side shades. This gives a nice lighting result.
Measurements: The Overall chandelier height is 29”. The diameter is 26” shade tip to shade tip. A complete mounting kit will be supplied with this fixture.
Price: $950.00 for the complete set with puffy shades and having been completely UL restored and re-wired and ready to hang...plus careful packaging and shipping.
