A well known name in Art Deco Americana lighting is “Moe Bridgesâ€. There are existing catalogs, from the 1930's, that show his lines. This pendant comes from the series that Moe Bridges called the “Etruscan Seriesâ€.
This two shade, single light, pendant was presented in his 1935 catalog as stock number 330-PL-1 and described as: “One light pendant Lantern. Spread 6 3/4 x 8 1/2 inches. Length 36 inches. Price $6.90†Now, we cannot offer the same price as 1935, but we thought we would pass along what it sold for at that date. And while the original 1935 (as delivered) length was 36â€, ours has been shortened to 19 1/2†for modern ceilings at some time.
Completely re-wired to UL standards with a new socket, and now ready to install. It uses only one bulb, but it can be 100 watts easily. The shades are in great condition. We used a low wattage bulb for the pictures so as to not blow-out the focus of the camera lens. Using a larger bulb, in actual usage, will give a much brighter appearance.
Comes complete with all the mounting hardware.
The finish is old gold and original.
Price: $650.00, plus $50.00 for careful packaging and Ground shipping within the contiguous 48 states.

The $50.00 charged at check-out will be credited towards your shipping total. Please contact us if you would like a shipping quote before purchase. We will be happy to oblige!
