Designer finds Solution - Antique Sconces

RM is a Designer that lives with her husband and Daughter in a 10 Unit Condo Association in Boston's Back Bay. She has been instrumental in upgrading the neglected common areas in her building. It came time to upgrade the sconce and ceiling lighting on the different floors and a lot of the association members wanted to use energy saving bulbs. The existing lights were reproduction electric candle sconces and the compact fluorescent bulbs would look terrible.

RM had a great idea. She wanted to use Antique sconces from the period that the building was built. She also wanted to have Antique etched shades so that the compact fluorescent bulbs would be covered.

RM then found a compact fluorescent bulb that looked like the old bulbs because the screw part of the bulb is housed in a torpedo so it looks like a candle bulb.

What a great Interior Designer. Glad that GenuineAntiqueLighting.net could help make it all work.
