About the Item

Rare and beautifully handcrafted Arts & Crafts light fixture for black forest enthousiasts. If you are looking for unique antiques that tell something about life in different parts of the world AND that bring a smile to your face then this typical Austrian light fixture could be ideal. This beautifully executed, great condition and sculptural light fixture will look marvelous at home, but it can also create the perfect atmosphere in chalet, a lodge, a (wo)mancave, a German or Austrian restaurant or possibly in an 'outdoor store'. Mind you, this music playing lady also carries a rucksack, meaning that she is enjoying a walk in the Alps whilst playing folklore music for herself and for anyone listening. All hand painted and hand carved out of wood this finely carved female figure in her Tyroler outfit and with her accordion in hand will bring jollity and light both during the days and in the evenings. This very rare pendant even comes with handknotted rope wiring for the perfect rural look and feel. This highly decorative work of lighting art is a real eyecatcher and she will always give visitors (or customers) something to enjoy and to talk about. Mind you, this antique, historical and cultural European light fixture is perfectly rewired to the highest standard for safe and immediate usage in the USA as well. If you like this wonderfully joyous light fixture as much as we do then you will love our sharp price. Especially when taken into account that perfect packing and worldwide shipping from our store to your door in just 4 to 6 days are complimentary. Maximum height x width: 35 x 30.8 inches. Diameter of the shades: 6 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish yet practical and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again).
