An exceptionally scarce British art deco pendant lamp made of bronze square tube and two mouthblown glass cylinder shades made of opaline glass cased in a very pale pink. It is complete with its original two-hole ceiling rose.
By repute, it was taken down from the ticket desk of an art deco cinema in Lincolnshire several decades ago. If you find yourself without a ticket desk, it would also work great anywhere you need stylish overhead task lighting – dining table, breakfast bar, desk – or in any smaller room as general lighting.
The lamp has been dismantled, gently cleaned, and brought up to modern safety standards with new British-made bulb-holders and new wiring. It is now equipped with premium Italian double insulated 3-core cable with a vintage-style woven braid of mottled grey linen. The overall drop of the lamp can be shortened during installation, if required.
The lamp accepts two B22 bayonet cap bulbs.

Condition
Some wear to the original finish, as you might expect. Small nibbles to the base rim of the shades, which may be from production. See images. Otherwise, in really good condition for its age, and ready to install.
