About the Item

Unique and awesome, two-light alabaster pendant with hand carved oak leafs & acorns. Thanks to its unique design, aesthetic beauty, large size and superb condition this antique alabaster chandelier is bound to light up one of our client's days and evenings in the very near future. This rare Art Deco design was all hand-crafted in Europe in the earliest years of the 1910s. Since it is hand carved out of one large and solid rock of alabaster, it must have taken the artisan(s) weeks rather than days to first design this work of beauty on paper and then carve it to perfection. This was all done by hand and what made carving this particular shade extra challenging were the oak leafs and acorns. Hand carving those detailed oak leafs and acorns was something that sculptors in those days were capable of, but that is not what the biggest challenge was when creating this work of beauty. If you look closely at those handcarved and stylishly colored details, you will see that they are wider than the shade itself. This means that for the purpose of adding those handcarved details, the shade for this chandelier would have been much thicker than normal. And for the carved details to really 'stick out' the entire rest of the surface of this shade would have to be carved away, whilst still keeping that surface perfectly rounded. It is because of that extremely time consuming, extra work, this alabaster chandelier would have always been extra desirable. Furthermore, the stunning and unique large shade is designed in such a way that the two bulbs stay completely out of sight, no matter from what distance you look at it. Thanks to its large size, its unique handcarved design and superb condition this alabaster chandelier from the heydays of the Art Deco era will never fail impress. Another feature that makes this antique shade extra spectacular are the thick black veins. Both on and off these organically beautiful veins make this shade just perfect and combined with a bronzed chain & canopy you could hardly wish for a more stylish light to grace your living space. Thanks to the metal hook inside the height adjustable canopy, mounting this light tight to your ceiling is child's play. Mind you, this large, two-light pendant also is rewired to the highest standard for safe and immediate usage in the US as well. If you like this aesthetically marvelous antique chandelier as much as we do then you will love our price. Especially when taken into account that perfect packing and worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 to 6 days are complimentary. Current height x diameter: 26 x 19 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).
