Description

This is a fabulous antique brass Arts and Crafts four-light chandelier, originally half gas and half electric, now all wired for electricity. Dating from the late 1800’s, this fixture has a beautifully aged patina. Beginning with a four-sided brass canopy, the chandelier comes down in a four-sided pole to its rectangular body. The chandelier body is crowned with a pyramidal brass top, from which extends the squared body. Four arms extend straight out just beneath the pyramid, ending in cubes which support understated shade holders and four-sided shades. Two arms were originally gas, and have pentagonal loop gas keys. The chandelier body angles outward and back in to accept a four-sided finial at the bottom. This light fixture is in excellent condition, and the shades are also in excellent condition with no cracks or breaks, just the expected fleabites around the rims. The chandelier has been professionally rewired and comes with all the necessary attachments for modern installation. It would be perfect for any Craftsman bungalow or Prairie style house. It measures 23 ½” wide, 14” tall, and 45 ½” long overall.
