#tbtPrimelite: Catalogs of Primelite’s lighting fixtures were, and still are, an important part of business. Featured in an early catalog was this series of Victorian gaslight inspired fixtures. With colorful and textured glass lampshades, these fixtures successfully captured the charming “gas-glow” of Victorian lamps and brought it to residences throughout the US.

 

 

The Victorian gaslight collection included a range of hanging and wall mounted lights, incorporating decorative brass arms, hanging chains and colorful glass shades. An interior designer’s delight; these lights were available in custom finishes including; Polished Brass and Antique Brass . The textured glass shades were available in colors including; Ruby, Amber, Cranberry, “Acqua” and Opal White.
