Buck Rogers Light Fixture

Art Deco light fixture,it's 13 inches across. Any suggestions on a great Deco bulb for this piece ?
PS-Found in the 'Black Hole' of our garage ! Somebody gave Us this piece.

 

What's the address of this Black Hole?
An' do you have any alarm or surveillance system in place?
Just askin'...y'know?

 

Wowzer! That's gorg!

Thanks Folks-That came out of the same 'Hole' the Edo Foo Dog popped out of !

 

that's special !

 

Very cool!!

 

Rewire and up she goes!

 

Here's some bulbs I like-only $25-$40 EACH !
PS-I'd mount this sideways on a vertical wall,like an illuminated sculpture.

 

The last one is more in keeping with the design of the fixture, but the first one would be crazy (in a good way).

 

Agreed.

 

Nice fixture, but light years away from those bulbs.

 

Take the fixture to these guys in N Portland and they'll fix you right up.

Thanks for the feedback All !
Pott-Sunlan's the place most definitely,merci.

 

Off of our master bathroom is a water closet that uses a wall mounted fixture above the toilet. I used this small Deco ceiling fixture on the wall. Keep the bulbs small and admire the Deco.

 

Just a thought...all three of those lamps have long filaments, an' I'll risk assuming that they are designed to burn vertically, perhaps only base up...or base down...for longer life...bicbw.

 

Beautiful Roaring-You've got superb taste and now I get your drift about letting the fixture shine,good call.
Thanks for the tip Whit-sharp observation (Reddy Kilowatt).

 

WOW...I had forgotten all about Reddy Kilowatt!
Your mention of him is a tacit admission that you, too, are older than Dirt, Bosko...not, of course that there's anything at all wrong with that, but still...

 

Thank the cosmos for dirt and all the rest of the mystery !
PS-Whit,check out all the Reddy Kilowatt memorabilia on Ebay-he's a star over there.

 

not fair, i want one

 

Nice fixture. Think the ceramic sockets are replacements. Would at least paint the outer ring to match better. A small clear or amber exposed filament bulb would be the way to go.
