Art Deco Streamlined Chandelier Nickel Plated

About the Item

Measures: 18.5" wide and 12.75" tall. A perfect Art Deco period chandelier in the skyscraper theme and perfect for adorning a room with Donald Deskey furniture or the like. Captures the tone of the era perfectly with nickel plated aluminum, painted black elements and special art glass made for the ceiling fixture that has qualities akin to loetz glass with an applied black strip across each of the 5 shades. The 5 arms turn up and attach to the ceiling plate. Each socket is rated for 200 watts but we would not recommend such a high wattage per lamp. The ceiling fixture has all the manufacturing hallmarks of being a one-off and the hardware dates it to the period. Would benefit from re-wiring but is tested and operational. Contact us if you would like it rewired. Maker is unknown, obtained in Chicago.

  • Ten-Tier Cascading Chandelier by Tapio Wirkkala for Oy Airam AB, Finland
    By Tapio Wirkkala
    Located in South Charleston, WV
    A rare and monumental ten-tier pendant cascading chandelier by Finnish master designer Tapio Wirkkala, produced by Oy Airam AB of Finland with cased opaline glass shades. Some designs have the bulb he designed for Airam forming the diamond shape whereas in this example the opaline diamond shapes are glass shades and particularly uncommon. Measures: 60" tall (though can be extended to much longer lengths), 19" wide. Each pendant is 13.5" long and 5" wide and takes a 25 watt bulb. The ceiling mounting plate is 15" wide. Cords are slightly warped only in the photo from having been packed and will settle out to be straight after a few days after being hung. See the 4th photo as the lamp was prior to removal. Produced sometime between 1960 and mid-1970s and with ten pendants, it is one of the largest examples to be found anywhere and a very fine example of vintage modernist lighting...
