This beautifully rustic pendant will light the way on any interior design journey you might have. With a vintage-inspired untreated Copper shade, this is a pendant with a whole lot of heart. Complete the look with a glowing Edison bulb, not included. Includes 5 ft of cloth cord the color of your choice for hardwired option with a canopy (Brass, Steel, Copper or more styles and finishes upon request). Different sockets and switches also available. Pendant Dimensions: 8" Diam. x 3.5" H Uses: 1x 250W max. bulb (not included) This piece is treated with rubbed wax to prevent further corrosion, untreated, lacquered or polished options are also available upon request. Any imperfections present on the lamp are inherent to the handmade nature of this re-purposed light. Due to being hand-spun Shade tones may vary for the one pictured and might show manufacture marks ie, smudges, tiny scratches. Most of my pieces are made with unfinished metals, therefore they will tarnish over time. Patina only adds character to the piece, but if tarnish is not desired wax or mineral oils can be applied regularly.

For custom wall sconceJay was terrific. He was responsive, patient and accommodating. I had asked him to replicate something that I had seen on a site and he was spot-on. I highly recommend Jay and Retro Steam Works and I will definitely reach out to him again in the future.
