General Electric Fan Lamp:

Introduced to the world in 1938, the General Electric Vortalex Fans were built to keep America cool in a difficult World War II era. GE continued producing the popular Vortalex Fans until the 1960s when fans were eclipsed by the more affordable household cooling systems. While today an original Vortalex fan may collect dust in a basement or attic, I take pride in transforming the GE Vortalex Fan in a way that preserves the history while repurposing its function for a 21st century home or business.

I meticulously preserve each and every part of the fan as it was first created, even down to re-polishing the original screws. The blades are then carefully removed and the fan rewired for the addition of classic Edison-style light bulbs. Each repurposed Vortalex fan lamp has a distinct look and can be made-to-order.

Illuminate history in your next space with an original Dan Cordero General Electric Fan Lamp!

The Eden Pendant is a showstopper….everyone comments on how perfect they are with the Hammered Flat Black Dome Pendant. These were custom made to my specifications too.

We worked with Dan while building a new house during the pandemic. At a time when everything was crashing around us with vendors and contractors, Dan was incredibly responsive, friendly, and patient. We had delays with electricians, issues with shipping related to COVID….the list goes on and on. Dan responded to every email and even picked up the phone to call me when we were in crunch time with the builders. I could go on and on (and I have many times to whoever will listen) but let me also comment on his amazing craftsmanship. We purchased the hammered dome in black for our farmhouse style, casual dining room, a multi-globe chandelier for our foyer, two farmhouse lights for our laundry room add three pendant globe/lights for the kitchen. Each piece is more spectacular than the next. They are show stopping, unique and made with great care and detail.
I can’t recommend Dan enough. Wish I had stumbled upon him sooner.

Dan does incredibly beautiful, meticulous craftsmanship! This lamp is stunning–a gorgeous mix of materials in finishes that harmonize so well the end product sings. Dan also is a great communicator and kept me posted on where my order was in the process. He is also an impeccable shipper of delicate items, so my lamp and bulbs arrived in mint condition. Based on the superior quality of my lamp, I would say that Dan clearly loves what he does, and my god is he good at it. I will definitely be purchasing from Dan’s shop again. Thanks so much for adding such elegant charm to my living space, Dan!

Wow, these are incredibly beautiful pendants. They look fantastic over our kitchen island. They arrived extremely well packed. Everything is so high quality and installation was easy for our electrician. I can’t stop looking at them.

I cannot say enough good things about this custom-made chandelier. Dan was amazing to work with from design, answering questions and getting this made and delivered faster than anticipated to meet a deadline. Post install, it’s even more brilliant than we had hoped. I can’t stop staring at it. Would recommend Cordero to anyone searching for a high quality product and phenomenal customer service!

A gorgeous foyer light, great quality and absolutely met my expectations if not more. It did take a while to get, but as another comment said, it was absolutely worth the wait! Thank you Dan!

I give my highest compliment to Daniel. He kept me apprised of where he was on the progress of my customized fan light, and when he couldn’t find something soon enough, he sacrificed his prize fan, and redid it for me. The fan light was beautiful, and arrived unbroken, with 4 edison light bulbs. You will not regret it if you buy something from his store.

The shipping took a little over 30 days to arrive, but when it did, I was truly pleased with the piece. It was well packed and more stunning than the picture. I love it and if I am ever in the market for a similar product, I will be back! Thanks, Dan!
