This listing is for 1 ceiling mount light fixture (circa 1950s - 1960s) that was one of many fixtures previously used at a Lunatic Asylum - The SC State Mental Hospital, at the Bull street campus. This fixture hung as meal tray line lighting at the hospital cafeteria. The fixture has a beautiful white milk glass tubular inner shade that mounts with a brass 3 rod hardware piece that links to the original aluminum silver mount with a swivel angle rod and then a silver aluminum shade that slides over the white milk glass with hardware slots for the trio brass wands to lay in securely. All original wiring - but would recommend, for safety reasons, that new owners re-wire before installing. We have installed one of the fixtures like this one (as shown in the uploaded images) and decided to leave off the aluminum shade and showcase just the white milk glass cylinder. You can choose to either expose the full milk glass or hang the aluminum atomic shade outside the glass - both are lovely. Although, the fixture has been wiped down cleaned, it will still need a careful thorough cleaning, soft soapy bath on the glass, cleaning the aluminum and then the hardware. Expect signs of aged dirt, dust, some scratches to the aluminum and hardware mounting as well as patina and rusting on the brass rods and mount hooks. The swivel angle rod will allow for any sloped ceiling if needed. It's a true beauty - with a colorful history - and brings "crazy" (no pun intended) joy!
