A friend of mine Jason gave me some vintage glass he found under some trees he was cutting down this summer. This guy had stored the contents of a east coast lighting company from the turn of the last century in an open feild 20+ years ago. Most of the steel from the gas lamps, and indoor fixtures had rusted away, but the brass and glass survived. I had to soak these shades in vinegar to get the news print they were wrapped in from the 1930’s off. Great ads! Next time I go up there I’m going to spend more time looking though what he saved.
These were made for my wife Kyrsten’s birthday. It only took me 10 years to finally hang lights in our bathroom.
