Large Arts and Crafts Alabaster & Wrought Iron Chandelier with Apple Sculptures
About the Item
One of a kind and truly amazing Arts & Crafts pendant.
Over the years we have owned and sold a number of unique alabster light fixtures from the Arts & Crafts era, but never did we own one of this size and with such an incredible wrought iron frame and gallery. Incorporated in this artistic chandelier are four perfectly hand forged apples with branches and leafs and the quality of the ironwork is exceptional. This clearly is the result of the hard work and dedication of several master craftsmen. Their unmistakable creativity and workmanship resulted into a chandelier like you (and we) have never seen before. The sheer size combined with its aesthetical beauty make this more than a work of art, this is, and always has been, a statement piece. Maybe it was commissioned for by the owner of a cider vineyard, maybe this work of beauty holds a deeper meaning in a religious sense, because apart from symbolizing love, knowledge, wisdom, joy, death and luxury, the apple of the Garden of Eden, ofcourse is the symbol of temptation and of original sin. We will never know for sure what the artist's deeper meaning behind the apples was, but what we do know is that you will never find another chandelier like this anywhere in the world. Luckily former owners recognized and very much respected the unicity, originality, quality and beauty of this Arts and Crafts gem and for that reason it is in superb condition still. Mind you, this three light chandelier has been rewired to the highest standard for safe and immediate usage the world over. To us, you could not wish for a more striking, artistic and decorative chandelier hanging over your dining table, but in the right space this work of lighting art will look great no matter where you decide to have it on display.

- Arts & Crafts Chandelier with a Great Owl Sculpture & Perfect Alabaster ShadesLocated in Lisse, NLUnique, 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...Category
