Stunningly beautiful Art Deco Flycatcher glass bowl ceiling light with with floral themed relief and multi coloured marbling

Art Deco Flycatcher glass bowl ceiling light with floral relief and soft multi-coloured marbling

Affectionately known as ‘flycatchers’, these hanging glass bowl ceiling light shades became popular during the 1920s through to the 1950s.

This rare soft pink, yellow and magenta marbleised flycatcher shade with floral reliefs and a domed sculptured base.

A beautiful flycatcher and a real statement piece it looks as good lit or unlit.

I have carefully restored this salvaged light to its former glory and fitted it with new dark bronze components; chains, bowl hooks, 3-hook ceiling fitting and lamp holder. It has a new wooden pattress and is fitted with antique rose fabric flex. The ES (E27) lampholder has been PAT tested for safety.

Each one is original and has been used, showing normal signs of wear and tear. Several small chips on the rim has been carefully diamond-ground as part of the refurbishment (these cannot be seen when hung and do not affect the integrity of the shade)

This Flycatcher ceiling light comes with everything you need to easily convert your existing ceiling fitting. Wiring should be carried out by a qualified electrician.

The wooden pattress is supplied in plain varnished pine and can be painted to suit your ceiling colour or contrast with it.

The flycatcher is fixed to the ceiling with a circular 3 hook ceiling rose and is supported by 3 chains. The height of the flycatcher can be adjusted when fitting by removing a number links from the chains (I suggest no more than 2 to 3 links).

Fitting instructions.

1. The wooden pattress should be securely fitted to the ceiling by a qualified electrician..

2. Wiring of the 3-hook ceiling plate and lamp holder should be carried out by a qualified electrician. Please Note: The 3-hook ceiling plate will need to be earthed using the supplied earth tag.

3. The bulb should not touch the bowl (approx 5cm away) and cable should be secured by tightening the cord grip.

This Art Deco Flycatcher ceiling light comes complete with a 13w LED (Non dimmable) bulb.
