Antique Bronze French 5 Light 20" dia 24"h Chandelier crystal disassembled
$ 595.00
Hello this sale is for the large 5 light light chandelier...it is a wonderful
French painted bronze and crystal 5 light chandelier with original swagging and draped crystals. It comes complete with original hanging chain and canopy. It dates from the 1930's and is of fine quality. The fixture without the chain measures 20 inches in diameter by 24 inches in height including the prisms at the bottom. The chain and canopy add another 12 inches so the maximum drop is 38 inches. One can also shorten the chain so that the minimun drop is about 31 inches or so. The chandelier sports its orginal green coloration with colored prisms. It has 2 horizontal chained and swagged with colored beads going from arm to arm...likewise a long chain from the top near the canopy drapes down to the light. The fixture will be completely disassembled accept for the arms...so if you are not a fixture person and you think it looks cute and you can spend a few minutes stringing a few strands you are wrong. It is a major undertaking and requires skills patience and motivation. Most of the prisms are off and there is about a few inches of clear chain beads that are not present. So expect strands loose detached and some larger prisms. I say this because it was sent to someone already who thought you can ship these and you pull it out of a box and it looks like it does in the photos...in the real world thes old chandeliers are fragile with crusty old wiring and the wires to the prisms needing to be repinned which is a huge undertaking...i have done it before it is possible but most people are unaware of the work that goes on behind the scenes when purchasing things..like on reality tv series...it just doesnt work the way things go...I try to go over the fixtures....more often than not with older fixtures along with the process of removing some prisms become detached....and may or may not be reattached for shooting. This fixture does not have functioning wiring however it needs to be rewired by a professional before installation. If you have any questions or something to share...please note the last photo is showing the other chandelier together with the smaller one...the larger one is being sold separately also. Some prisms may be removed for shipping. Best Regards,JohnnyJohnnyCrystal Est. 1987
