Original marbled glass Art Deco Flycatcher glass bowl ceiling light
Hanging glass bowl ceiling light shades were popular during the 1920s through to the 1950s. They earned the name ‘Flycatcher’ for obvious reasons.
This original Art Deco Flycatcher lampshade comes alive when lit, its marbling is quintessential 1920s and 1930s. I have fitted a bright pink fabric cable which picks up the colours of the shade.
I have carefully restored these salvaged lights to their former glory and fitted them with new chrome components; chains, glass bowl hooks, 3-hook ceiling fitting, wooden pattress, lamp holder and coloured flex. They have been tested for safety.
Each one is original and has been used, showing normal signs of wear and tear.
Each ‘Flycatcher’ lampshade 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. I like both.
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 and nut.
3. The bulb should not touch the bowl (approx 5cm away) and cable should be secured with the plastic grub screw.
This marbled glass Art Deco Flycatcher glass bowl ceiling light comes complete with a 12w LED (Non-Dimmable) bulb.
