This Cobbler rise and fall pendant is a reproduction of one of the first electrified lighting fixtures. Since the bulbs of this time were so weak, it was convenient to be able to pull the light closer when necessary. This model was first produced around 1880 and has always been popular. However, it was most prevalent up until the 1920s.
Finish: Nickel-plated brass
Light source: Ceramic E27 lamp holder (20W)
Adjustable height: Approximately 50 cm - 140 cm (20 – 55 in.)

The lamp holder has a ceramic edge. The heat resistance of the ceramic material far exceeds that of both Bakelite and plastic. The cord is of the same type that was used during the 1880-1890s when cords were typically twisted and covered with fabric.
