1930s Holophane Sailor Hat with New Polished NICKEL on Original Semi Flush Steel Fixture #2692

Old clear glass Holophane lights really look like nothing other.    They are more than just clear glass--they have a glittering quality unlike modern versions.  Here a two piece shade hangs from an original semi flush fixture with new warm  nickel plating.    The interior framework that hangs the lower shade has been rebuilt:  since the original pieces were rusted beyond repair, we reconstructed it with new hardware.    This has an open bottom, where at one point  there was a center plug that allowed for access to change the bulb.    It's easily dropped and broken so regularly missing, but we have a spare we can supply for an additional fee, but these work well without the center.
