I have one of these pull down lights in my livingroom. The bottom globe is missing, exposing the 2 light bulbs in the fixture. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement? It measures approx. 13 1/2 in. in diameter.

A number of people have mentioned that they have their pull downs attached to a track. Could someone post a pic of how that works or a brand name for the track. I can’t use a pull down unless I can reposition it as the table is constantly being moved depending on the number of diners.
I grew up with one of these made by a company in Montreal I think. My parents left it in the house when they downsized. Rats!! It was great!
