Mercury Glass… Still contemporary after 80 years.

Featuring a highly polished finish these petite glass pendants feel right at home with modern-day to mid-20th century furnishings. The hollow glass shades are delicate, which also makes them precious. Each one has the feel of a Christmas ornament. The mirrored glass is on the outside as well as the interior, leaving air space between the 2 surfaces for silvering. The mirrored outside gives the lights a very distinctive look. Colors are mostly silver or blue with a beautiful quilted pattern. Other designs and colors can be found and are worth the hunt. For me, the smallest shades are the most unique and look great when hung as a group. Note the small silver shade still has the original Edison paper label…. $500 each.
