About the Item

40 available! An incredible run of scarcely found blue tinted pendants made in England by Holophane. c.1930 Beauitful crisp prismatic glass reflectors and original industrial cast galleries, both bearing the Holophane makers mark. Salvaged from a textile mill in the south of England where they have hung for the past 8 decades. Price is per light. Rewired with 1m of black round flex. About the maker Holophane was founded in 1896 by businessman Otis Mygatt who set up companies in both America and the UK for the production and sale of their ingeniously designed prismatic lenses and reflectors. Holophane lights are used all over the world in a multitude of different environments, each serving a different purpose - whether it be a library, a train station or a chemical plant. The word Holophane derives itself from the Greek words 'Holos' and 'Phainein' meaning 'to appear completely luminous'. Later on in it's production Holophane secured the largest-ever single lighting order in the UK of 65,000 fittings, covering 186 miles of tunnels in the London Underground. Holophane has provided some 80 years of service to the London Underground in total.
