Holophane pendant lights reclaimed from an abandoned 150 year old chapel originally built in 1876 in the heart of Gwynedd village in Wales, Rhosgadfan Chapel was listed for sale when we spotted the lights still hanging in the images of the stripped out interior.
Made in England by Holophane in the 1920's these lights have hung in the church for around 100 years.
All glass is stamped with the Holophane makers marks and model numbers.
The small decorative brass galleries are also stamped Holophane and have aged wonderfully over time.
These cute pendant lights look particularly beautiful when hung in multiples over tables and countertops.
The drop on the lights can be adjusted to suite with a minimum drop of around 300 mm, the lights come with 2 meters of our premium black fabric twisted cable as standard.
Holophane's "Reflector - Refractors" were developed following the commission of the company to provide the illumination of St Pauls Cathedral, London in 1923 requiring greater glare and brightness.
As seen in our 1937 catalogue snippet the Holophane Reflector - Refractors form totally enclosed prismatic glassware, originally designed for lighting Public Buildings, School, Offices and Shop interiors.
In addition to its practical qualities, vintage Holophane glass is highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts of vintage and industrial design. The prismatic texture of the glass creates a unique visual effect that is both beautiful and functional, making it a popular choice for use in home decor and lighting fixtures. The vintage Holophane glass is often paired with high-quality metal fixtures, such as brass or cast iron, to create a look that is both elegant and industrial in style.
