Rare Extra Large Antique Opaline Pendant Light
A rare large size of 400mm diameter, these lights were reclaimed for an industrial mill just outside of Bradford.
British made circa 1920.
The beautiful Opaline Milk Glass is hand blown to a wonderful elegant shape with a large 6" fitter neck fits to an original spun brass gallery.
The glass has been cleaned and polished and the gallery has been cleaned back enough to show through the warm tones of he brass but still keeps enough ageing to hold its charm and character.
The light comes complete with complimenting aged brass chain and ceiling rose.
THE TERM SCHOOLHOUSE PENDANTS
Vintage opaline schoolhouse pendant lights are a type of lighting fixture that was commonly used in schools and other public buildings during the early to mid-20th century. These lights typically feature a simple yet elegant design, with a white or off-white opaline glass shade that provides a soft, diffused light. The shades are usually globe-shaped, with a flared or tapered base that attaches to a metal fixture or chain. The metal fixtures may be finished in a range of colors, from simple black or white to more decorative finishes like brass or bronze. Vintage opaline schoolhouse pendant lights are popular among those seeking to create a retro or vintage-inspired look in their homes or commercial spaces. They are often used in kitchens, dining rooms, and other areas where a soft, warm light is desired, and their simple yet classic design makes them a versatile addition to any interior décor.
