Fine Consolidated Lamp & Glass Co. Martele Pair of Sconces Consolidated Lamp & Glass Co. of Coraopolis, PA was one of America's finest glass makers before, and during, the Great Depression. This Martele example is dated between 1931 and 1936. Unfortunately...Consolidated went bankrupt no less than three times during the Great Depression. They made outstanding consumer products, i.e. vases, bowls etc., and most outstanding shades and lighting. And everything that they made was the absolute BEST quality America had to offer to the world. Elaborating on designs from the French Exposition Des Arts Decoratifs of 1925, they brought out some absolutely wonderful shade and fixture designs. They made shades for their own lighting line, and for other lighting manufacturers such as Moe Bridges. They were simply a great company. This pair of sconces were just being produced in a cooperation between Moe Bridges and Consolidated, when Consolidated first got in trouble during the Depression. There are pencil reference flyers by Moe Bridges, and rough catalog representations from Consolidated, both showing these sconces. Consolidated stated: Suitable for lighting the best modern homes. Also shown as model 2950 with the title "Martele Commercial Line", a commercial tag, since the shade size was larger than contemporaries. This pair of sconces is often referred to as the most iconic pair of slip shade sconces of the Art Deco era. They simply are outstanding in design, and not often found for sale. These come from Consolidated's own Martele Line, and have a red bronze finished frame with their outstanding Martele iconic Art Deco shades. Overall Measurements: * Height: 11 ½" * Width: 6 ¼" * Projection: 5 ¾" from the wall into the room. These sconces have been completely re-wired, in our UL shop, with new sockets to conform to UL guidelines. Each socket is capable of accepting a 100 watt bulb...but...we would recommend LED bulbs to protect the now older glass shades. Remarkable Consolidated/Moe Bridges cooperated sconces, UL re-wired: $1,650.00...plus careful shipping. $25.00 for Ground Shipping within the contiguous 48 states.

Antique Art Deco Three Light Ceiling Chandelier with Slip Shades Hard-to-find, cute, 3 light Art Deco slip shade chandelier. Circa 1930, this Art Deco 3 shade chandelier  More »

Antique Art Deco Three Light Ceiling Chandelier with Slip Shades Hard-to-find, cute, 3 light Art Deco slip shade chandelier. Circa 1930, this Art Deco 3 shade chandelier matches the five and six shade versions that have been so popular when we have had them. True, high-end quality original cast iron antique frame with a nice pewter finish. The ONLY drawback to this smaller fixture is that a small decorative part of the frame decor is missing from one of the panels. It affects nothing structurally, but does catch the eye IF...and only IF...you are really looking for it. We have shown this minor defect clearly, but believe the lovely design carries the fixture quite well. AND, of course, we have reduced the asking price by two hundred dollars as well, to compensate. Now this chandelier costs less than a pair of sconces, and it contains 3 shades. And...the shades are simply in fantastic condition. Measurements: * Height: 18" * Diameter: ~13" from shade tip to shade tip. To make it better, please note that this cute antique fixture has been completely re wired in our UL shop with new sockets, and new wire, and is ready to hang. A full mounting crossbar set will be sent with them. Each of the slip shades is capable of accepting a 100 watt bulb. Price for this cute authentic slip shade chandelier: $764.50 plus shipping. $50.00 for Ground Shipping within the contiguous 48 states. Residents of Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and International Customers: We gladly ship our listings to customers worldwide. Shipping costs are calculated and invoiced separately on a per-order basis.

Art Deco Streamline Ceiling Bowl Pendent Light Beautifully shaped bowl, with alternating clear and surface-treated opal color panels...just a really nice, classy design. While the bowl has that great look, making it double nice is the matching stem. Just a quality presentation for a glass ceiling bowl chandelier. We do sell cheaper ones...but this one stands out above the other types. Measurements: * Height: 17" overall. * Diameter: 15 ½" The bowl is lit with a standard 3-socket cluster within that bowl, and will accept a 100 watt light bulb in each of the sockets, giving a full 300 watts of lighting. We did not fully power it up for pictures, as too much light blows out the focus of the camera lens. We always use small 25 watt or lower bulbs in our pictures, so the detail of the light fixture itself is revealed. We completely re-wired this wonderful light in our UL shop. Price: $495.00...plus careful packing and shipping. $50.00 for Ground Shipping within the contiguous 48 states.

Art Deco Slip Shade Chandelier with Cut Glass Center Fantastic Art Deco 1930s chandelier. This is such an unusual light, it is hard to find a place to start. First, it is a 6 light fixture. Five of the lights are on the outside on the arms, in the gorgeous amber shades, and one is in the center behind the fine--cut glass--center panels. This center socket gives you three options for decor. You can use an amber light bulb...or a plain frosted tube light bulb...or even shut it off, since the 3-way switch at the bottom of the light turns the center light bulb on and off. Measurements: * Height: 27" overall. * Diameter: 21" This chandelier has been re-wired in our UL lamp shop with new sockets and wire to UL standards. Each new socket can easily take a 100 watt bulb, giving a total of 600 watts of light if so desired. Of course, LED bulbs are neat too. Going that extra mile...that we like to do...the rotary switch, near the bottom finial, is what is called a three-way switch. It allows you to turn the center light on ONLY (night light), or, turn the five shades outside ONLY, or, turn both the inside and outside lights on together. This ability to vary the lighting gives lots of decorating possibilities. The five cut glass center panels are just plain gorgeous. They slip in from the top, and I am pleased to say that they are in mint condition, with so little roughness that it is not worth discussing. The shades for each of the arms...while being lovely mellow amber...are also in outstanding condition, with only the most minor of roughness. The metal of the chandelier is, I believe, aluminum and some iron and steel for the main fixture metals, which has a nice ambiance of a pewter finish. All a very nice appearance. Price: $1,375.00 which includes all the shades and lovely center panels. $50.00 for Ground Shipping within the contiguous 48 states. Residents of Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and International Customers: We gladly ship our listings to customers worldwide. Shipping costs are calculated and invoiced separately on a per-order basis.

Art Deco Indirect Aluminum and Glass Chandelier Fantastic Art Deco 1930s chandelier. This is an unusual light. Measurements: * Height: 22" overall. * Diameter: 25" This chandelier has been re-wired in our UL lamp shop with eleven new medium base normal sockets, and new wiring to UL standards. Each new rim socket can easily take a 100 watt bulb, giving a total of 1000 watts of light, if so desired. Of course, LED bulbs are neat too. There is a center socket, which we suggest will use a great T10 tubular bulb to light up the center column of glass tubes. We will include the first one for you. You can see the construction of the light from the photograph we took looking down into the light. We removed six center glass tubes...which is normal for bulb changing...to show the center socket and the existing bulb now. For the ten sockets around the bowl...the angle can be gently changed to accommodate different bulbs the first time it is decide which bulbs you will use. What a very striking effect this has in a room. A total mood accent with this fine light. Price: $1,375.00 which includes all the shades and lovely center panels. $50.00 for Ground Shipping within the contiguous 48 states.

Pair of Antique Restored Art Deco Close Ceiling Lights A PAIR of matching, antique, Art Deco period, three-light, close ceiling chandeliers. Excellent for a lower ceiling  More »

Pair of Antique Restored Art Deco Close Ceiling Lights A PAIR of matching, antique, Art Deco period, three-light, close ceiling chandeliers. Excellent for a lower ceiling where substantial light is desired. They could, if desired, be mounted with a pull chain for off/on at the fixture. Or, they can be used with a dimmer wall switch. While they were produced just slightly before the true Art Deco era, they would have nicely graced a home from 1920 to 1940 with authentic ease. The frames have a nice pewter finish. Circa 1920, these fixtures were originally sold both as a close ceiling fixture and with a stem for a longer drop. These chandeliers have been totally rewired to UL code, with new sockets and wire, and are ready to grace a lovely home. Each socket is fully capable of 100 watt incandescent bulb. Measurements: * Height: 5" * Diameter: 13" Each fixture fastens directly to a UL approved electrical box by the center finial. All mounting supplies will be furnished. Must point out that the rim (which fits against the ceiling) does have some nibbles out of it. We have shown them in close up pictures. However, once installed, they do almost totally disappear...and then too...these are antiques that are showing their age, as well. The pricing does, however, reflect these nibbles. Price: $544.50 for the PAIR of UL restored close ceiling chandeliers, complete with shades...plus a small shipping charge. $50.00 for Ground Shipping within the contiguous 48 states. Residents of Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and International Customers: We gladly ship our listings to customers worldwide. Shipping costs are calculated and invoiced separately on a per-order basis.
