About the Item

Hillebrand brass, glass and Lucite bead large pair of wall or ceiling lights, circa 1960s, German. Thoroughly cleaned respecting the vintage patina. Newly rewired, earthed, in full working order and ready to install. Light bulbs included. This pair of large vintage lights by German manufacturer Hillebrand, were designed to work as either ceiling or wall lights. With their classic form, these lights are reminiscent of earlier Art Deco lighting. This pair have a Modernist 1950s twist in the design with the elongated brass segments and interlocking Lucite beads. The styling and materials make these lights well suited for a range of interiors such as Art Deco, Traditional, Hollywood Regency, Minimalist or contemporary. Structurally each light consists of a solid polished brass round base. At the centre of each base there is a vertical brass column through which the shade attaches. This is finished with a solid brass decorative plate and finial. Each shade is slightly dome shaped consisting of tiny solid polished brass square section columns separated by segments of Lucite beads & tiny clear cylinder shape beads. These are strung together to make a sunburst pattern. Light passing though emphasises the depth and gold toned reflections. The glass shade has a geometric pattern which enhances the sunburst pattern. Cleverly the brass & bead portion of the shade is strung tightly to fit around a groove in the glass shade. The glass shade has a hole in the centre through which it is tightly held to the base. On the back of the base there are four holes to screw and fit the light flush to the wall/ceiling. Each light has three lamp holders facing horizontally to the base. Each takes three standard small screw light bulbs up to 40 watts. At present fitted and photographed with Pygmy clear 25 Watts which are included in the price. The lights could although take other E14 light bulb shapes. Both lights are in very good condition. The brass portions have the original clear lacquer on the brass and an attractive warm antique patina developed over the years. The glass portion of the shades are in perfect condition as are the Lucite beads.While the lights are a perfect match the lamp holders are slightly different between the pair; one light as three lamp holders in gilt metal while the other has 3 lamp holders in thermo gilt plastic. They sell together and this price is for the pair. Hillebrand lighting history, The Egon Hillebrand light factory (Leuchtenfabrik Hillebrand) was established in 1881 in Germany.
