Stunning Antique Hallway or Stairwell Pendant w. Four Bronze Ram Head Sculptures
Located in Lisse, NL
Rare and highly stylish, gilt bronze and glass entry hall fixture.
In the earliest days of electric lighting, designers worked closely together with artists & artisans and together they created some of the most beautiful light fixtures made in the history of mankind. For creating these 'works of lighting art' they used some of the most expensive materials and some of the most expensive methods. One of the reasons why such very expensive light fixtures could be made, was, because the potential buyers were mostly people who lived in the largest and most expensive of homes. This gilt bronze and cut glass pendant would have been made for an entry hall with a high ceiling and it would be mounted in the centre of a ceiling rose. The unique combination of gilt bronze ornaments and a stunning cut glass shade, makes this antique pendant an absolute joy to own and look at. This handsome and completely original antique pendant, has rams heads and guirlandes all around the shade, a crown-like gallery on top and leafs and a bronze pineapple underneath. All these antique style elements symbolize something, but with regards to this hallway pendant we particularly like the symbolic meaning of the pineapple, because to many Europeans in the new world they symbolized friendship and hospitality. So much so that families would hang pineapples outside their homes to perfume the entryway and make it welcoming to guests. This striking antique pendant too is wired for safe and immediate usage the world over.
If you like the rarity, quality, beauty and the deeper meaning of this antique hallway...

Antique, Vintage and Contemporary Chandeliers and Pendant Lights
Chandeliers — simple in form, inspired by candelabras and originally made of wood or iron — first made an appearance in early churches. For those wealthy enough to afford them for their homes in the medieval period, a chandelier's suspended lights likely exuded imminent danger, as lit candles served as the light source for fixtures of the era. Things have thankfully changed since then, and antique and vintage chandeliers and pendant lights are popular in many interiors today.
While gas lighting during the late 18th century represented an upgrade for chandeliers — and gas lamps would long inspire Danish architect and pioneering modernist lighting designer Poul Henningsen — it would eventually be replaced with the familiar electric lighting of today.
The key difference between a pendant light and a chandelier is that a pendant incorporates only a single bulb into its design. Don’t mistake this for simplicity, however. An Art Deco–styled homage to Sputnik from Murano glass artisans Giovanni Dalla Fina (note: there is more than one lighting fixture that shares its name with the iconic mid-century-era satellite — see Gino Sarfatti’s design too), with handcrafted decorative elements supported by a chrome frame, is just one stunning example of the elaborate engineering that can be incorporated into every component of a chandelier.
Chandeliers have evolved over time, but their classic elegance has remained unchanged. Not only will the right chandelier prove impressive in a given room, but it can also offer a certain sense of practicality. These fixtures can easily illuminate an entire space, while their elevated position prevents them from creating glare or straining one’s eyes. Certain materials, like glass, can complement naturally lit settings without stealing the show. Brass, on the other hand, can introduce an alluring, warm glow. While LEDs have earned a bad reputation for their perceived harsh bluish lights and a loss of brightness over their life span, the right design choices can help harness their lighting potential and create the perfect mood. A careful approach to lighting can transform your room into a peaceful and cozy nook, ideal for napping, reading or working.
For midsize spaces, a wall light or sconce can pull the room together and get the lighting job done. Perforated steel rings underneath five bands of handspun aluminum support a rich diffusion of light within Alvar Aalto's Beehive pendant light, but if you’re looking to brighten a more modest room, perhaps a minimalist solution is what you’re after. The mid-century modern furniture designer Charlotte Perriand devised her CP-1 wall lamps in the 1960s, in which a repositioning of sheet-metal plates can redirect light as needed.
The versatility and variability of these lighting staples mean that, when it comes to finding something like the perfect chandelier, you’ll never be left hanging. From the whimsical — like the work of Beau & Bien’s Sylvie Maréchal, frequently inspired by her dreams — to the classic beauty of Paul Ferrante's fixtures, there is a style for every room. With designs for pendant lights and chandeliers across eras, colors and materials, you’ll never run out of options to explore on 1stDibs.
