This bowl, which measures about 17 inches in diameter, has a deeply acid-etched design in the "Mirettes" pattern. The hardware is all original and in excellent condition. There is some minor scuffing along a couple inches of the edge of the glass bowl, only noticeable upon close inspection (shown close-up in one photo). One American antique socket hangs by twisted cloth-covered wire in the center of the bowl, a replacement for the original French bayonet socket. You can employ any size (standard-based) light bulb. The light coming through the glass is dazzling; depending on the wattage of the bulb you choose you'll get plenty of light bouncing off the ceiling. Dim it down at night for a spectacular "light show!"

Dimensions: about 17x17x35 inches. See less
