Details

This is a splendid matching pair of antique Art Deco five-light cast brass chandeliers, dating from the 1930’s, with their original sit-in or “pudding-bowl” shades. Made and signed by Levolite, each chandelier begins with a simple black canopy, which comes down in a chain to a striking brass arrow finial, which crowns an intricately cast, reeded column wrapped in a crisscrossed swag and flanked by intricately cast leaves. Five black S-curved arms extend from the center of the chandelier, each ending in a brass shade holder with simple groove detail and small foliate cutouts, and connected by brass leaves. Each shade holder supports a delightful sit-in shade. These light fixtures are in excellent condition, and the shades are also in excellent condition with no cracks or breaks, just the expected fleabites around their rims. The base of each chandelier is finished in a palm leaf finial. The chandeliers have been professionally rewired and come with all the necessary attachments for modern installation. Each light fixture measures 20 ½” wide, 17” tall (body only), and 35” long overall.
