Arts & Crafts Chandelier with a Great Owl Sculpture & Perfect Alabaster Shades
About the Item
Unique, antique, stunning and all handcrafted 6 light chandelier.
Some chances you only get once in your lifetime and that is exactly what we thought when we first saw this marvelous Arts and Crafts era pendant. The six hand carved arms are like stems of flowers growing out of the base of this chandelier and the perfect (both design and condition-wise) alabaster shades are like stylized blooming flowers. Just like the six mint arms, the monumental and mint circular 'base' too is all hand-crafted and hand carved out of soilid oak and with a stunning row of large oak beads between the top and bottom section. Together with the equally unique and also handcrafted, original 'rope-chains' they are just some of the elements that make this antique extraordinary and truly a joy to own and to look at. However, to us, it is the remarkable and mint condition, hand carved owl sculpture in the middle of this chandelier that takes it to the next level. This beautiful and meaningful bird is the international symbol for wisdom and learning and in this case it is sitting perfectly upright with its 'river pearl eyes' always alert and present. If your vocation has anything to do with gaining or spreading knowledge and if you understand and appreciate the symbolic meaning of this owl chandelier then maybe you should be its next custodian. And in this case the word custodian is not out of place at all, because this rare and entirely original antique chandelier really is of museum quality and condition. Thanks to its timeless design this easy to mount, six-light chandelier can be used and enjoyed in all kinds of interiors. And with all 6 lights burning in the evenings this unique chandelier will easily light up a regular size dining or kitchen area. In our photos we used 6 times 40 watt bulbs, but you could easily use 6 times 60 or 80 watts. That will provide more than enough light for every occasion and when you attach a dimmer, creating the perfect light everyday will be child's play. All six alabaster shades are in the best possible condition and the combination with the beautiful patina of this solid oak pendant is one that will never fail to impress. This unique chandelier too is rewired to the highest standard for safe and immediate usage in the USA as well and you will even be able to use your regular American E26 screwthread bulbs.
If you like this one of a kind and top quality handcrafted chandelier as much as we do then you will love our price. Especially when taken into account that perfect packing and also worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 to 6 days are complimenatry.
Maximum height x diameter: 33 x 34 inches.
Diameter of the large and mint canopy: 7.9 inches.

- XL Antique Alabaster Chandelier / Pendant w. Bronze Ram Sculptures & Rose ShadesLocated in Lisse, NLMajestic antique pendant with a stunning, 20 inch alabaster shade and two sets of glass shades. Thanks to its unique design, its impressive size and its truly excellent condition this six-light alabaster chandelier will light up both your days and evenings, both in summer and winter time. This antique light fixture could not be more original and it even comes with a set of three near-transparent glass roses shades AND a set of three amberish color glass roses shades (matching the alabaster). So you can always choose the type of glass rose shades that you think are best for the occasion, season etc. The superb condition, colorful, extra large and deep alabaster shade combined with the equally excellent glass roses are a match made in heaven. However, what takes this chandelier to the next level are the three large and gilt bronze ram sculptures at each of the three suspension points. May these meaningful symbols for determination, power and leadership inspire their new owner(s) to reach for the stars and beyond. The black veins combined with other color veins and patches in this natural mineral stone shade contrast even more beautiful when the light is switched on, because the already marvelous colorful alabaster then turns into an even warmer spectacle of colors. We could shoot a hundred photos, but you still would not be able to see the true beauty of this impressive chandelier. The unique patterns inside this hand carved shade are the work of mother nature herself and the light brings them out in their true glory. In real life our antiques always have that little bit extra and this stunning pendant is all but an exception to that rule. You can, again, take our word for it. The original and heavy gilt bronze chain and the stunning and large, gilt bronze canopy are like the icing on the cake of this incredibly rich chandelier. If you have also noticed the double rose pattern on each of the gilt bronze shackles then you must agree that whomever had this chandelier made clearly spared no expenses. And to give you an even better idea of the quality, the gilt bronze canopy alone weighs over 11 pounds lbs. To find this majestic chandelier in such excellent condition made our day, week and month and we are proud to be able to offer it to our 1stdibs clientele first. For our photos of this six-light chandelier we used three 75 watt bulbs inside the shade and one 60 watt bulb in each of the rose shades. This chandelier, however, will easily take three times 100 watts inside the shade and also easily 80 watts in each of the glass rose...Category
