The Porthole Ceiling Light is fabricated from solid cast brass components and the glass dome is hand-cut and etched.

The hand-cut and etched frosted glass dome features striking spear-cut detailing.

This design is based on an Edwardian fitting we admired in a country house. The authentic etched glass detailing on the dome, which is hinged to the cast brass fitting, is typical of the period.
