Double-take

While researching for a post, I happened upon a site...tudò & co...that has interesting lighting offerings...some reproductions and some not.  I won't open the can of worms about the ethical implications of buying replicas/knock-offs. I did that in a series entitled Is It Real? that you can read here, here and here. You get to decide where you stand on that issue. Here are a few samples of their wares.

    Nice lighting. The first ones remind me of Hershey, PA where even the street light shades are shaped like that (Hershey Kisses).
    I have some original Edison lights. I'm always afraid to light the ones I only have one of just in case the vaccuum seals have leaked.

      Interesting about the Hershey street lights. I just Googled them, and thought it was cute that they alternate an "unopened" silver Kiss, complete with tag, with an "opened" brown one. I've only been to Pittsburgh and Cook Forest on the west side of the state, so I'm not familiar with the Hershey area, but I have a friend who lives in Sinking Spring (near Reading). I should visit her someday and make a little road trip to Hershey.

    I'm Margret from the United States, When i found testimonies about this spell caster Dr Andrew how he helped many people to get their lovers and broken homes back, i contacted him through his email address (drandrewspiritualtemple@gmail.com) because my Husband whom i loved so much with all my heart suddenly changed and turned his back on me and hated me with passion. I was absolutely devastated and desperate to get my husband back. Life without him was a real mess for me and and i wanted a dramatic change and I thought magic could be the solution. After discussing with Dr Andrew he gave me hope that he will restore my relationship back to me. I felt confident that he will actually make my Husband to return home and he did it with some style! It’s fantastic what this great Astrologer have done for me, his help is priceless! I don’t know what I would have done without Dr Andrew,this man does his job so well he is organized and highly professional, i believe he is the best spell caster i can count on when it comes to all kinds of spell. if you need help, contact him (drandrewspiritualtemple@gmail.com) I assure you things will turn around for good..
