Shoemaker lamp large green shade white cord

The cobbler’s lamp was one of the first indoor electric light fixtures.

The model became common as ceiling lighting in all rooms in simpler homes from the 1910s onwards, however in wealthier environments it became the standard luminaire for less lavish rooms, such as hallways, kitchens and maids’ rooms.

The lamp provides nice spot lighting and fits just as well alone over a dining table as to hang several in a row.

All metal parts are made of heavy, polished, unlacquered brass. The shade is green with white inside and is made of hand-blown opal glass.

A specially designed cable strain relief relieves the cable so that it does not carry the entire weight of the luminaire. As an extra accessory, for a contemporary ceiling connection, a porcelain ceiling bracket with a wooden base plate is available, both with and without grooves.

Shade of hand-blown green opal glass with white inside. Diameter 25 cm. Lamp holder in unpainted polished brass with ceramic base. Light source for E27 base. 2 m white twisted textile covered cable (3-wire, earth) included. Plug not included.
