Holophane shades are known for their brilliant refracted light. This shade can be used on any lamp from the Victorian era through the modern era.
The term "Holophane" is used generically to describe clear molded glass or crystal shades and globes with parallel or crosscut prisms. Vintage Holophanes (circa the 1890s-1950s) are outstanding examples of mid-twentieth-century industrial art. The crisp clean lines create a beautiful glow when illuminated. Holophane glass was invented in the 1890s and was made in many shapes, sizes, and patterns to provide specific types of illumination. The term "Prismatic" is an alternative term for Holophane glass. Holophane glass is a beautiful choice for industrial lighting.
