1950 Lightolier
My online vintage lighting store.
For many many years I had, in my vast storage vaults, a very early 1950s porch sconce by Lightolier. The other day I wondered: why keep this beauty hidden away any longer?
So…ta-da!!!!!!!! I love the basketweave glass shade.
Beauty no longer hidden.
I also love the ribbed black components.

So beautiful! I really like the blocky, yet graceful feel
Where would you use that? Is it an inside light or ment to go beside a door?
It’s porch sconce, Jenine. So, yes, next to an entrance door.
I love the glass shade on that light. I replaced my bathroom windows with cross threaded glass very similar to that. I would have bought that light for above the bathroom mirror as it was a “porch light”. Bathroom is from a 1949 remodel so it would have fit right in. I replaced it about 30 years ago so too late. If only you had cleaned this up and listed it 30 years ago. But then, how would I have found it without the internet?
Ooo, this would be perfect on my late 1940s vintage historic mining house. Would blend right in and it also has a bit of Southewestern flair.
Gorgeous. I’d love to have it, but we don’t have those kinds of porch lights. Ours are all overhead.
