ANTIQUE MERCURY GLASS SHOP LIGHTS

NICKEL PLATED GALLERY & PATRESS

A trio of mercury glass shades with silver painted exteriors, these are unbranded but very similar to items we have sold in the past by ALTORAY & MORCO.

Featuring pressed glass, silvered underneath the layer of paint, the ribbed design runs both vertically and diagonally maximising the refraction of light from the bulb within. The asymmetrical shape of the glass would have been designed to illuminate merchandise or signage, often in a shop window.

These come complete with their nickel plated fretwork galleries and fluted patress fittings for ceiling mounting, they have been re-wired with a metre of black twisted 3 core flex but could be supplied on chromed swan necked wall fixtures if preferred for a small extra charge
