Description

This is a splendid antique Art Deco five-light bronze chandelier, dating from the 1920’s. It begins with a very unusual canopy featuring a zigzag edge, and comes down in a chain to a remarkable loop finial with an inverted ziggurat shape. Five wonderfully cast pieces, featuring an intricate floral and foliate design, come down the chandelier body to the support the bobeches. Below the finial is a fluted section, followed by a round pole, which finishes in an intricately cast base, featuring an incredible design of floral and foliate detail surrounded by geometric shapes, followed by a ziggurat section which ends in a finial. The arms spring from the base of the chandelier, arching upward to end in a spike, beneath which hangs a bobeche with a zigzag edge. This light fixture is in excellent condition. It has been professionally rewired and comes with all the necessary attachments for modern installation. The chandelier measures 19 1/2” wide, 20” tall (body only), and 34″ long overall.
