Olde Good Things acquired a limited supply of these Holophane globes from Paris, ready to be transformed into great contemporary lighting for either a residential or commercial application. The hallmark of Holophane luminaires, or lighting fixtures, is the borosilicate glass reflector/refractor. The glass prisms (ribs) provide a combination of up light and down light to illuminate any environment evenly without creating dark spots or glare. This requires one standard Edison style medium base bulb. This light is cleaned, wired, and ready to ship. The manufacturer and exact date of creation are unknown. The dimensions are 18 in. diameter x 63.75 in. H, light 20 in. H. This weighs 38 lb.
