Vintage Red Glass Ball EXIT Sign Hand-Painted Sphere Light Shade Fixture B9

Vintage Red Glass Ball Sphere - Hand-Painted EXIT Light Shade, Folk Art Fixture. This vintage red glass ball sits on its own pedestal foot and features hand-painted black "EXIT" lettering with real brushstroke character - every letter is a little different, just like true folk art. Whether it began life as a lamp globe or decorative sphere, someone lovingly turned it into a glowing exit marker by hand. A fantastic centerpiece for anyone who collects unique, one-of-a-kind glass and lighting pieces. Vintage red glass ball / sphere light shade, mounted on its own round pedestal glass foot. "EXIT" lettering is hand-painted in black - this is NOT a factory-printed or molded sign; the brushwork is visible and each letter varies slightly, giving it genuine folk-art character. Glossy translucent red glass that glows when backlit. 5.5 diameter sphere on integrated pedestal foot - see tape measure photos for exact reference. Great as a display piece, repurposed light fixture, or standout addition to a folk-art / vintage lighting collection.
Condition Notes - Honest & Detailed. This is a genuine vintage, hand-altered piece and shows honest age and wear.
Please review all photos closely, as they are part of the description. The black lettering is hand-painted, not factory applied - brushstrokes, minor drips, and uneven paint coverage are visible and are part of its handmade character, not a defect to be "fixed". A small opening/chip is visible near the top of the globe, with a whitish ring or halo around it (see close-up photos) - light shows through this spot. Light surface scratches and minor scuffs scattered across the glossy surface. No bulb, socket hardware, or mounting bracket included - this listing is for the glass globe only.
Item carefully packed to prevent damage in transit.
