comments
  Beginning in the late 1960s Westinghouse produced a line of Christmas lamps that had a unique marbleized finish. Two colors were used in the process and the result was a very pleasing and attractive looking Christmas lamp, until it was lit. The marble effect is lost when lit due to the brightness of the lamp. As a result these lamps were not popular and they were only sold for a few years.
