Green Vintage Industrial Lamp (3 of them)


Three pendant lamps made with vintage industrial shades from the 50s, but in such a neat condition it's obvious they were never used.

I got them in a flea market (along with the grey and blue ones) and they were wrapped on paper from back those days! so exciting... one of them had a sticker with the trademark 'IEP': I looked it up and it turns to be a Catalan firm, specialized in industrial lighting since the begining of the 20th Century... they are still on business, but under another name as they got 'swallowerd' by an american Company in the mid 60s.



The shades are 35cm in diameter and enameled in the 'classic' grass green with a black brim, white in the inside. I have mounted them with a meter and a half long black cotton cord, the bulb socket is white and the rest of parts (cup, hook and cord holder) are black.
Some details:
**Like the other pendant lamps I make, it's already attached to the wire connector: ready to be hung!
The three shades and the rest of parts, before mounting the lamps (you can see the sticker with the trademark in one of them, and I have not removed it afterwards):
