Located in Lisse, NL
Copper and glass Arts & Crafts chandelier with original fine copper 'chain' & original canopy.
With early 20th century lighting being one of our specialities, finding this rare and extraordinary pendant more than made our day.
This rare and striking Art Deco pendant chandelier is a masterful example of early 1900 decorative arts, crafted in richly patinated copper with an extraordinary high-relief depiction of a four eagles with outstretched wings, the eagles imbue the piece with a strong sense of symmetry, motion, and symbolic presence.
The sculptural detailing reflects the bold aesthetics of Art Deco, where natural motifs were often rendered in rich, luxurious materials.
Suspended from four decorative chains that attach to a domed ceiling canopy, the chandelier features a central frosted glass globe intricately etched with floral motifs, surrounded by four smaller rounded bulbs subtly integrated into the copper body.

In the Art Deco period, its use reflected a fascination with bold, heroic forms and classical symbolism reimagined through modern geometry. The presence of four eagles, facing outward on each side, adds an architectural rhythm and emphasizes watchfulness and balanc .. making this chandelier not just a source of light, but a profound sculptural object.
Whether placed in a grand hallway, above a dining table, or in a design-forward living space, this chandelier commands attention and speaks to both artistic heritage and timeless taste.

Antique and Vintage Chandeliers and Pendant Lights for Sale: Shop Baccarat Chandeliers, Stilnovo Chandeliers and Other Lighting on 1stDibs
Chandeliers — simple in form, inspired by candelabras and originally made of wood or iron — first made an appearance in early churches.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 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, 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. (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.)
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 natural world-inspired designs of the Art Nouveau era 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 — shop a collection today that includes antique Art Deco chandeliers, Stilnovo chandeliers, Baccarat chandeliers and more.
