Concentric Ring Pendant lights « on: May 19, 2007, 07:00:42 PM » Author: NiMo
I'm curious about something.  For years, one of my favorite indoor fixtures have been an all-aluminum high wattage ceiling light.  They typically came in two sizes:  One (with all of the stylistic variations thereto) had three concentric rings and used up to 500-watt silvered bowl incandescent.  The other had four rings and used 750-1000 watt silvered bowl incandescents.  Does anyone know who manufactured them and what they're properly called?

Oh I remember those fixtures! My classroom had those with GE silver bowl lamps when I was 5. I believe those lamps were 500 watt (or maybe 300 watt). I recall one of the bulbs went out in the corner and one day it was replaced. It was MUCH brighter and whiter than the others cuz it had no blackening. Unfortunately I do not precisely know the technical name for them, but I vaguely remember them being called "schoolhouse fixtures".
