Great antique condition!
Freshly rewired, cleaned, tested and working well
From a large antique lighting collection in Michigan - see / watch our store for more
She's a stunning, large-scale beauty at 18" across
The milk glass globe has a painted black stripe around the edge (with what looks like a little touch-up over the years).
The fixture is Union Made in USA and has a black painted finish. The only wear to the finish is on the hooks below the ceiling canopy and a bit on the canopy itself (not noticed when hung).
The metal has no cracks, gouges or dents.
The glass has no chips or cracks.
What an amazing beauty!
She uses one standard-base light bulb up to 100 watts, or use an LED bulb for any brightness you like, as they use low wattage for bright light. A bulb extension is included so that your bulb comes out farther from the fixture and therefore shows more of its light. 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 burgler 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 (see a newspaper article picture of him in photo #24). 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! :)
