We recommend having your new fixture installed by a professional to prevent any issues.

BULBS are Not Included with the fixture. UL approved porcelain sockets are rated at 75W MAX.
Choice of bulbs is up to the buyer, some like them very small and up inside the glass so they can emit light through the glass, others like the bulbs to be sticking out of the bottom. It's a matter of preference but we recommend cool burning to reduce any issues with excessive heat.

These glass insulators are VERY old & they will not look new. They may come with minor flaws, flea bites, rough lips, etc. all from age, wear and the original pour/mold technique used.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Using incandescent bulbs inside glass pendants/lights is not recommended due to the lack of ventilation and potential overheating. It is safer to use LED bulbs that are specifically designed for enclosed fixtures, as they have safety features to prevent overheating and ensure optimal performance. Always check the specifications and ratings of the bulbs to ensure they are suitable for your specific lighting application.
