#tbtPrimelite: This weeks #ThrowbackThursday once again features our “Glamour Globes” from the 1970’s. For use in both interior and exterior applications, our fashion forward globes were heavily influenced by the disco era and were constructed of polycarbonate and embedded with crackle chips creating the metallic finish shown. Available in the fashionable colors of the time, including green, gold, blue, red, and white. These globes were, and still are, the definition of “cool”!
#then&now: Globes! Globes! Globes! A sample of Primelite’s current selection of interior and exterior globe fixtures.
One of our most popular lighting styles, Primelite’s globes are no longer just round! Today Primelite offers globes in many shapes; including cube, ellipsoid, “deco”, and round. While the colorful “Glamour Globe” series is no longer available, we do offer our globes in opal, smoke and clear. Materials range from glass, acrylic, polyethene, polycarbonate and are available in sizes from 6″ to 36″.
#tbtPrimelite: Now here’s a real blast from the past! Our selection of 1970s globes included these hand painted character globes. Inspired by the children’s doll “Raggedy Ann” and clowns, these globes were Primelite’s first foray into childrens lighting fixtures.
Working with a local artist, who hand painted each globe, our “Raggedy Ann” and “Harlequie” and “Halequina” clown characters were popular children’s themes. Raggedy Ann was, and is, a classic, and clowns have always been favorite characters with children. Primary used in childrens bedrooms these fixtures were popular throughout the ’70s decade.
#then&now: While these hand painted character face globes were Primelite’s first children’s lighting fixtures, we’ve continued to offer childrens fixtures through the years. As styles and themes have changed, so have the themes of our childrens fixtures. In 2015 our childrens light fixtures have a sports related theme.
#tbtPrimelite: We’re highlighting another page from a 1970s Primelite catalog featuring “The Amato Collection” of pendant lights. Manufactured of wrought iron in our Freeport, NY warehouse, these fixtures were available in some of the most fashionable 1970 colors, including avocado, mustard, red, blue, apple green and burnt orange.
Further customize the fixtures with a choice of polished brass or chrome socket cups. These were the height of 1970s suburban home and dining elegance!

As we continue our #tbt catalog exploration, this week we’re featuring a page from a 1970s Primelite catalog highlighting our “Fiesta” collection of kitchen ceiling lights. The 1970s was a big time for wrought iron lights and accessories. Handmade and manufactured in our warehouse, our fixtures were “de regir” in any tasteful suburban home. These fixtures were available in “fiesta” colors; including green, orange & blue and came with smoked, white, and tinted “crackle” glass globes. What a perfect accent to that avocado colored oven!

“While strolling through the park one day In the merry merry month of May I was taken by surprise What a sight to my eyes Up high a Primelite #427/16-1871! “
Ok. So we weren’t quite “strolling through” a park. And it sure wasn’t May! And, yes, our poetry is awful. But one of our eagle-eyed scouts did spot something “up high” while on a stroll through Princeton, NJ. High above a lovely garage. Yes, “a garage!” High above the garage door was our exterior fixture #427/16-1871! In a beautiful copper finish. Which, BTW, complemented the finish of the building quite nicely.
Though not as showy as some of our past sightings, we are still happy to see our fixtures helping to light the way. Whether it’s a gym, cafe, retail establishment, or even a garage, Primelite is your lighting fixture source.
