Title: Retro glass wall light
Post by: adam20 on May 20, 2011, 04:10:10 PM

A pair of wall lights - only one shown as they are quite bulky - brass and wood fittings but large glass shades in retro style - taken from an older 60s decorated house and sold to me for 50p the pair

Label on wooden base fitting 'Poole Lighting made in England' - ref V8206

So what period are they

Thanks Adam

I'm afraid I think these are very common, no actual idea though. You see them in cinemas and concert halls and pubs a lot. I'm sure I've seen plastic ones too.
