Product information
Beautiful set of vintage hand painted milk glass Christmas lights. I would estimate from research that these lights would have been manufactured in the 1930s. There are 25 bulbs, ranging from Father Christmas, piglets, parrots, Betty Boop like figures to ships and trains. The bulbs are made from milk glass, and are hand painted. The wiring is old - still cloth covered and the plug is bakelite and fits into a light fitting. The person that I bought the lights from says they worked, but I have not tested them as the wiring needs replacement. The bulbs are in good condition for their age - I do not see any chips or cracks. They have a high value - sets as large as this sell for more than R 2000.00 on the internet. Lovely vintage buy for your Christmas tree.
