Vintage Pressed Tin Flush Mount order Ceiling Light Fixture Dual Bare Bulb Ceramic Sockets-Original Finish Copper Patina -Farmhouse Lighting Decor

Pressed Tin Two Socket Bare Bulb Ceiling Fixture Retaining Original Finish

This was a very common type of fixture during the 1920's-30's - a quick and simple fabrication - given they were inexpensive to make they were affordable - they were very popular as they were attractive alternatives to other more expensive light fixtures just as the electric grid was expanding and electric household lighting was becoming more pervasive.

This is a bare bulb two socket flush mount fixture - it is notable given it is a little larger than most - its physical condition is very good - the embossing and socket/light order bulb collars are very attractive - and it still retains its original copper finish.

In as found/used condition - structurally intact - there are no breaks, cracks or physical repairs - the surface/patina is especially nice - it is the original finish with only some slight flaking and scratches - there is one minor dimple/dent (view photo #8) which frankly in my estimation is not a detraction.

The two porcelain sockets and wiring appear to be original - the one socket is imprinted as follows .... "made in Canada ... HW & Co" (view photo # 10) - there are no other visible markings as to maker or country of origin - there was no mounting hardware when found.

Verification of the sockets should be undertaken by a licensed electrician - in addition to the requisite rewiring and installation - takes a standard sized screw in bulb - should not exceed 60 watts.

Specs:
length of fixture is approximately 12 ins
width of fixture is approximately 7 ins

A genuine vintage fixture in wonderful overall condition - an attractive piece of lighting decor for the loft/farmhouse/country home or a retail /bar/restaurant space - this is a nice one and it deserves to be displayed and enjoyed.
