About the Item
RARE EXTRA LARGE JEFFERSON MOONSTONE PENDANT LIGHT WITH EXCEPTIONAL CAST BRASS FITTINGS
An exceptionally rare and impressive large Jefferson Moonstone glass pendant light, the largest size produced in this model and a true statement piece for grand interiors. The bowl is stamped and numbered 1236, as listed in The Jefferson Glass Company catalogue — the largest offering within the sought-after Doric design series.
The heavy cast brass fittings are of exceptional quality, retaining their original decorative detail and finish. The light is suspended from a four-way ceiling plate, branching to a central ring that connects to eight substantial brass link chains supporting the main ring. Running through the centre is the traditional old English twisted cable, terminating in a superb cast bronze four-way lamp holder that provides generous illumination across the large glass bowl.
There is a small section of damage to the rim of the bowl which is not visible when in place and remains structurally sound. A remarkable and imposing example of early 20th-century British craftsmanship, perfectly suited to luxury interiors or country house settings seeking scale and authenticity.
Shown alongside our life-size wooden figure (approx. 6ft tall) for scale reference.
Fully restored, rewired, tested and ready for installation.

Jefferson Moonstone Glass Light Shades
Jefferson Moonstone glass light shades, crafted by the Jefferson Glass Company in the early 20th century, are celebrated as exquisite examples of American glass artistry. Founded in 1900 in Follansbee, West Virginia, the Jefferson Glass Company was a pioneer in creating opalescent glassware. Their Moonstone range, introduced during the height of their success, showcased a delicate translucence and subtle glow that captured the light beautifully, making these shades highly desirable both then and now.
Moonstone glass shades were typically made from milky white or softly colored opalescent glass, often featuring intricate patterns such as floral designs, ribbing, or swirls. The craftsmanship of these shades demonstrated Jefferson’s expertise in manipulating glass to achieve a balance of elegance and durability. They were designed not only to diffuse light gently but also to serve as decorative focal points, making them a popular choice for domestic and commercial lighting during the Art Nouveau and early Art Deco periods.
A Timeless Appeal for Modern Interiors
Jefferson Moonstone glass light shades remain highly sought after by collectors and homeowners alike, prized for their luminous quality and timeless beauty. Their soft, ethereal glow makes them perfect for creating warm and inviting atmospheres in modern interiors. These shades pair effortlessly with a variety of lighting fixtures, from pendant lights to table lamps, adding a touch of vintage charm and sophistication to any space.
Why Choose a Reclaimed Moonstone Glass Shade?
Opting for a reclaimed Jefferson Moonstone glass shade allows you to bring a piece of American design history into your home. These shades not only showcase exceptional craftsmanship but also reflect the artistic sensibilities of their era. Their versatility makes them suitable for both traditional and contemporary interiors, where they add a sense of refinement and individuality. Choosing reclaimed lighting also supports sustainable practices, ensuring these beautiful, hand-crafted pieces continue to illuminate spaces for generations to come.
