About the Item

INDUSTRIAL HEAVY CAST BRASS & HOLOPHANE GLASS FLUSH BULKHEAD LIGHT Industrial Heavy Cast Brass & Holophane Glass Flush Bulkhead Light Fitting, likely French or Italian circa 1940. Crafted with solid cast brass construction, this fitting promises durability and longevity that has withstood the test of time. This versatile bulkhead fitting can be ceiling or wall mounted and would probably of originally lit a hall or passageway. The knurled detail on the holding ring adds a touch of elegance and character to the overall design which unscrews to access the bulb for maintenance. Similar to its British counterpart which can be seen in our 1937 catalogue showing a a slightly more decorative fitting with identical size Holophane shallow prismatic bowl. The vintage Holophane glass their "VELVETED FINISH" which is a slightly frosted satin glass. WHAT IS A BULKHEAD LIGHT FITTING Vintage bulkhead light fittings were originally designed for use in ships, boats and other marine vessels, but have since become a popular choice for industrial and coastal-inspired home interiors. These lights are known for their rugged construction, durability, and watertight sealing, making them an ideal choice for outdoor and marine environments. Vintage bulkhead lights typically feature a heavy-duty metal casing that is designed to withstand harsh weather conditions and exposure to saltwater. The lights are also fitted with a thick glass lens that helps to protect the bulb and diffuses the light, creating a soft, even glow. In addition to their practical qualities, vintage bulkhead lights are also highly sought after for their unique aesthetic qualities. The rugged, industrial design of these lights makes them a popular choice for use in modern and industrial-style home interiors. They are often paired with other vintage and reclaimed furnishings to create a cohesive and visually striking look. Whether you are looking for a durable and practical lighting solution for outdoor or marine environments, or you simply appreciate the unique aesthetic qualities of vintage industrial design, vintage bulkhead lights are a versatile and attractive choice.
