Set of 6 Paul Mayen Hanging Pendant Lamps

About the Item

More available. This is for a set of 6. In 1959 Paul Mayen patented Lumacryl a revolutionary acrylic that would make his lighting unique. These signed pieces are 17" long and 7" wide. The 16" stems gives them a drop of 33" total . Excellent for slanted ceilings as they pivot on a ball when hanging. This special acrylic has several important properties making these pendants ideal as ceiling fixtures. They hardly ever yellow (UV Stable), are incredibly strong and resistant to cracking, and diffuse light the same way a frosted glass shade would. From a distance it is hard to tell if they are glass or white acrylic. Each shade has 3 chrome plated brass posts that extend 1" outside the cylinder. The stems have double pivots. At the top under the 5.5" ceiling plate the pivot allows fixture to a slanted ceiling - common in Mid Century decor. The Second Pivot is just above the lantern socket which allows for precision positioning. All these fixtures are in excellent condition with only marks to the stems. All original and wiring in excellent condition. Ideal for residential and commercial use. Stems may be abbreviated or extended by a professional easily enough.
