2 1/4 (2.25) Inch Vintage Etched Bell Shaped Glass Light Fixture Shade

$ 54.99

A Genuine Art Deco Etched Glass Bell Shade for Restorers Completing the Perfect Antique Fixture


Lamp restorers will recognize this one immediately — a genuine vintage etched glass bell shade carrying the geometric confidence of the Art Deco era, its satin-frosted surface banded by a crisp, polished meander pattern that catches the light rather than hiding it. For the restorer rebuilding a 1920s or 1930s sconce, pendant, or ceiling fixture, finding the correct shade is often the last and most stubborn piece of the puzzle, and this one solves it cleanly, fitting a standard 2 1/4 inch fitter used widely across electric fixtures of the period. Whether you are completing a wall sconce, a hanging pendant, or a ceiling-mounted fixture, this bell-form shade brings authentic period character and soft, diffused light to the finished piece.

Can't Find the Part?

Looking for a matching sconce, a replacement shade, or an odd-sized fitter? Send us a photo and measurements. A large portion of our inventory is uncataloged. Many of the doors, windows, fireplace surrounds, bath fixtures, and architectural pieces in the yard never make it to the website. If you don't see it online, that doesn't mean we don't have it.

The Vintporium Heritage Standard

The Heritage Standard

Restored by hand, one at a time. Old wire out. New wire rated for present use, sound sockets, and grounding where the fixture allows. The body, glass, finish, and the marks it earned stay. Every fixture is tested on the bench before it leaves the shop.

About the Founder

Joe Golda has run Vintporium from his workshop in San José since 2008. He sources the pieces, pulls the old wiring, rewires them, finishes them by hand, and packs them himself. One person, one bench, one standard. Every fixture is tested — each socket, each switch — before it ships. What's original is called original. What's new is called new. We call this commitment to candor and craft our Heritage Standard.
