PAIR 20" BENJAMIN Porcelain Cast Iron Top Industrial Green Vtg Warehouse Light

Description: SOLD AS A PAIR SOLD AS A PAIR20 inch green porcelain industrial lights are very hard to find, if you've been searching, you already know that. Benjamin 20" with the 2-piece cast iron tops, a needle in the haystack. If you're seeking the Holy Grail of Benjamin green porcelain lighting, you shouldn't pass on these.Large lights like these tend to swallow up the bulb in the neck because todays bulbs are much, much shorter than the bulbs that these shades were designed for. I have added a full four inch socket extension so the new bulb will rest in the sweet-spot of the reflector. I also added a ground wire, my commercial customers require this, Pass Your Inspections!!The cosmetic condition rates a B or B+. Neither light has a chip on the green top, one has a couple of chips on the bottom white and both have minor chips on the black rim. One of the shades retains its original Benjamin manufacturers label. The threads holding the rare cast-iron screw-on top are nearly new-looking. All threads work as designed and required no work to make that happen, these guys are original survivors!The sockets are original and high quality. They are the larger mogul base size. I will include an easily removable adapter so the buyer may use standard household medium base bulbs if desired. I've added a machined aluminum, 4" inch socket extension that allows today's shorter bulbs to extend beyond the neck into the shade where they belong, vastly increasing performance. The extension also allows use of large LED bulbs, so fewer lights are needed to illuminate large areas. The shades are 20 inches in diameter. From the bottom of the shade to the top of the fitter is 15 inches tall. Overall, from the bottom to the top of the NOS Benjamin swivel hanger, is 22 inches, with the original 6" down-rod. Check out the UL Decal on the pipe! I can replace the 6" galvanized down-rods with 3, or 12" rods free of charge, in either black or galvanized pipe. The wiring will accommodate a down-rod of at least three feet. Need longer, let me know.The original Benjamin swivel hanger will let the light hang plumb even if the ceiling or electric box is not level. It also helps protect the light from bumps and bruises. Please feel free to ask questions prior to bidding. I'm a very fast and careful shipper. These lights will be packed very well.
