Strand Silvered Shades ES

Quantity in stock: 15

A set of antique silvered / mirrored saucer or dished shades by STRAND ELECTRIC LONDON and labelled as such on each shade within red shield shaped labels. English approx. 1930-40s.
The shades were silvered to the outside and then protected by paint and sometimes a layer of copper too.
Up to 15 available, some with paint losses and the silver tarnished to a champagne / gold colour. Most retain the red labels.
Wired with bronzed brass ES lampholders/cordgrips, bronzed brass galleries and 1.25m bergundy fabric flex. Different flex length / colour can be supplied.
**These are wired with patinated brass ES lampholders to facilitate use of small crown silvered "golf ball" type of bulbs which are not available in a BC fitting. The smaller bulb keeps it more within the shade for better looks and reflection. Slightly dearer so if you don't need a small crown silvered bulb or any other ES bulb specifically go for the BC lampholder option (separate advert).
Dimensions in inches/cms;
8.5"/21.5cm diameter.
4.5"/11.5cm tall inc cordgrip.
Weight is approx. 0.5kgeach.
Priced individually.
I also have 5 slightly deeper dished shades that would be suitable for wall lights and can be made up to suit with brass arms etc..
For more / higher res images please see my blog which can be accessed through the news section of this (haes) website.
