Vintage Ovaloid Opaline Textile Factory Pendant, 1920s

A stunning run of XL ovaloid opaline Factory Pendants Reclaimed from a Nottinghamshire textile factory scheduled for demolition. Beautiful shaped opaline glass with original aged brass double domed galleries, these completely original and protected the finish with beeswax. Available also in a slightly different shape with polished brass galleries here. English made circa 1920. These light work pretty much anywhere with any style of interior and give off a wonderful diffused light that emits in all directions, great for areas that require lots of light when paired with higher strength bulbs. A lucky find and almost one that we missed, the lights were discovered after months of trying to get access to the old factory that we knew was scheduled for demolition. The factory was huge and consisted of five floors and after an hour of searching each room we were so disappointed to find all the original lighting had been stripped out many years before, there was one room that we couldn’t access due to a locked door, determined to leave no stone unturned we talked to the owners who allowed us to break through and our persistence paid off as we were greeted with an untouched room with original lighting intact.
