Product Description

This is a made-up example of our Russian Insulator CD 638 240V E14 pendant, offered at a clearance price. It’s a genuine high-tension glass power-line insulator, upcycled into a pendant light with a wired-in E14 lamp holder and cord grip.

The CD 638 design was first made in the Soviet Union at the Lviv Insulator Plant in 1965 for use on very tall power towers. This one is solid clear glass, weighing around a kilo, and hangs from olive twisted braided cable with an antique brass cord grip. It comes pre-wired – just add a small E14 globe and a ceiling rose.

Clearance item – new old stock. This pendant is brand new and has never been installed, but it has been in storage for some time. As an industrial insulator, the glass naturally has small bubbles, ripples and moulding marks, which are part of its character. It’s a one-off – once it’s sold, it’s gone.

As a clearance item, this pendant is sold without our standard 12-month warranty, and we can’t offer returns or exchanges for change of mind or for the natural glass marks described above. This doesn’t affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.
