We must admit that we love to build lighting. Whether it is restoring our lovely antiques, or re-creating previous lighting devices, we simply enjoy building and restoring lights.
So...it is no wonder when we were asked to build a chandelier for a small production “play†with a “steampunk†theme, we came up with this beauty. Yes, it is one of a kind.
The chandelier is wired with two medium base sockets for 120 volt bulbs, and 3 sources of 12 volt colored indicator lights as shown in the pictures.
Keeping the steampunk theme going, we used “space age†looking induction light bulbs and control panel indicator lights to complete the theme.
The induction light bulbs on the left and right side of the chandelier are 120 volt, 27 watt, induction bulbs. Each yields 1650 lumens, a greater light output than common 100 watt incandescent bulbs, which yield only around 900± lumens. The induction bulbs that come with this chandelier also use only about 1â„10 of the electricity of incandescent bulbs.
The three LED indicator lights in the pictures are shown "On." They take small 12 volt E-9 bulbs, which are readily available. A transformer that converts the 120 volt line current to 12 volt is installed to run these.
Many compliments have come for this chandelier, but living in a Victorian town, it is a bit out of place in this locale.
This chandelier is totally ready to go and will be supplied with all the necessary mounting hardware.
Measurements:
Height: 41†tall.
Width: 25†wide.
The complete chandelier is $984.50, plus $50.00 for careful Ground Shipping within the contiguous 48 states.
