About the Item

Marvelous antique and classical design light fixture for an entry hall, bedroom or any other room. With these alabaster pendants being one of our specialities, we always love finding the timeless ones. This particular work of beauty comes with a very attractive and superb condition alabaster shade. It is so strong and structurally sound that it rings like a bell when you strike it. This good size mineral stone light fixture also comes with a strong brass chain and original alabaster canopy and they are both in excellent condition as well. The beautiful design with the curved and flat edge on top and the line carving makes this pendant extra special, because somehow it breathes a serenity that makes it an even greater joy to look at (both on and off). The few but well spread black veins are another quality that makes this light such a great sight to see. This antique pendant also is rewired to the highest standard for safe and immediate usage the world over. To us, this perfectly balanced alabaster pendant is the ideal light source for a hallway, a landing, a bedroom or any other room that can do with a quality and atmosphere upgrade. Thanks to the hook inside the height adjustable canopy it also is easy to mount to the hook coming from your ceiling. We have said it before and we'll say it again, but this alabaster light too looks so much better in real life than in any of our photos. One simply cannot capture the natural beauty and warm light that it radiates. Mind you, our fair price for this striking and marble-like light fixture even includes perfect packing and also worldwide shipping from our store to your door in just 4 to 6 days. Current height x diameter: 26 x 15.7 inches. Diameter of the matching canopy: 5.2 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).

Enormous 25.2Ø Hand Carved Antique Alabaster Floral Pendant / Chandelier 1910s
Located in Lisse, NL
Top class chandelier with an extra large, hand carved alabaster shade. Thanks to its extra large size and great condition this alabaster chandelier is one of the best alabaster chandeliers that we have ever seen or sold. This antique and entirely hand-carved alabaster chandelier will light up your days and evenings in a way that no modern fixture ever could. Anyone who has ever seen one in real life knows exactly what we are talking about. For this stunning, four light specimen they clearly used the perfect alabaster rock, because this unique shade comes with numerous and evenly divided black veins. That combined with the whiter veins and patches that have formed in this mineral stone over a period of thousands of years makes it truly special. We have several interior designer clients who are looking for these largest of alabaster chandeliers and they know that finding one over 25 inches in diameter is like the proverbial needle in the haystack. This not only is one of the largest (in diameter) antique alabaster pendants that we have ever had the pleasure of offering, it also is one of the deepest/highest. However, what takes this rare size chandelier to a level of its own are the scrolling leaf and flower patterns that are deeply and sharply hand carved all around the body. This level of workmanship was rare, even in the early 1900s and since this light would have cost a small fortune in those days, you can rest assure that only the best artisan would have been allowed to do these (exceptional) carvings. The original rope hanging to this monumental chandelier was 'shot' and we replaced it with bronzed chain that perfectly complements the entire look and feel of this majestic pendant. Combined with the large, original and height adjustable alabaster canopy this rare light can be used and enjoyed in all kinds of interiors and in all kinds of living spaces. For it to still be in this very good condition after more than 100 years is like an ode to the craftsmanship of early 1900 artisans in Europe. We could shoot many more photos, but you still would not be able to see the true beauty of this chandelier in general and the one of a kind, supersize shade in particular. In real life (or in person) our antiques always have that little bit extra and this unique and truly large alabaster chandelier...
