Rewired Cobalt Abolite RLM Light
Circa 1918-1930
When these lights were manufactured, blue porcelain shades were far more expensive to produce than their white or green counterparts, thus they cost substantially more. So much more in fact, people rarely bought them. This resulted in fewer being produced, fewer surviving and higher cost for the ones that did.
The Porcelain Enamel Finish is the same process used on plumbing fixtures and stoves, using minerals and glass applied to steel, then heated to extreme temperatures to literally meld the two together. The process was stopped in 1963 due to EPA regulations involving air polution created by the manufacturing process of both the steel and the porcelain enamel finish. The finish is impervious to any natural or chemical elements, will not lose its shine, and already has proven its properties.
