Pair Of Copper Car Lamps From 1900
Artist: Lampes Hirondelles
A very beautiful pair of automobile lamps, complete with their original wrought-iron mounts. These lamps were acetylene-powered and made of copper; they show no signs of deformation (no damage!). Each bears a nameplate from the lighting manufacturer Hirondelles. This type of lamp, which was originally used on horse-drawn carriages, was gradually adopted by the first automobile bodybuilders. Beyond restoring them to their original use, these lamps could be repurposed as wall sconces?
As shown in the photos, one circular glass shade needs to be replaced! But the fixture is designed to accommodate it!
