Large Vintage Gothic or Art Deco Black Wrought Iron & White Milk Glass Lights

About the Item

Wonderful large vintage gothic or Art Deco black painted wrought iron & white milk glass light fixtures. 3 total selling separately. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that these are vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear. The diffuser has been freshly painted but the rest of the fixture retains its original finish which has a wonderful, aged patina that includes chips and rust, but we think it just adds to their beauty. Please see photos and zoom in for details. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, Early 20th Century. Disclosure: Due to the weight of 102 pounds of the fixture, care needs to be taken upon hanging. Length of chain is exceptionally long at 9 feet plus 3 feet in upper shaft detail. It would be best to cut to length pre-shipping if possible. Original fixture had no canopy, it most likely hung from hook in ceiling. Canopy can be fashioned if requested. Also, the single center bulb has a mogul socket, and we are supplying a medium based adapter in that socket. “Instead of fighting the darkness, you bring in the light!” -Eckhart Tolle. And do we have a SENSATIONAL light fixture(s) to fight off the darkness!! Actually… we have more than one, we have four of these fixtures in this size. We will sell you one, two, or ALL THREE upon your request at checkout. Their original home was a beautiful church in Topeka, Kansas and now they are ready to grace your home with their fabulous ambience!! And talk about ambience versatility!!! Each fixture has 9 bulbs total, so you can wire it up to 3 circuits! In doing that, you open so many lighting possibilities! Three circuits give you the option to turn on all the bulbs, or just the upper 4 bulbs, just the lower 4 bulbs, OR just the 1 middle bulb… But if you prefer, just one circuit turns them all on. They are a bit Gothic, a bit Art Deco, a bit Arts & Crafts, and a whole bunch of AWESOME in style!! They hang from a chain and are comprised of cylindrical octagon shaped black painted wrought iron frames with a light diffuser at the base and eight narrow rectangular white milk glass panels per fixture. Just STUNNING!! These phenomenal light fixtures will be striking no matter where they are used. Whether singly in a stairwell or high entry, paired in a dining room over a long, gorgeous table, or installed above an interesting over-scaled kitchen island!

  • Gothic Architectural Church Spire or Steeple Pivoting Shrine Distressed Finish
    Located in Topeka, KS
    Marvelous antique Gothic Architectural Ecclesiastic church spire or steeple with pivoting shrine & distressed finish. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that this is vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear even if it has been refinished or restored. Specifically, there are pieces of wood missing throughout the structure and it has an all-over distressed patinated finish. A lower back support was added and a slatted back piece for stability by our professional craftsmen. It has also been reglued and re nailed for stability. Please see photos, zoom in for details, and see long description as they are part of the condition report. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, 18th to 19th Century. WOW!!! What have we HERE??? Is it a Spire? YES! Is it a Steeple? YES! Well, isn’t it kind of a Tower? Also, YES!!! And it is MAGNIFICENT!!! We have a GORGEOUS mid to late 19th Century Gothic Architectural Ecclesiastic church spire or steeple with a pivoting center shrine bearing a “perfectly imperfect” distressed finish. The use of spires, steeples, and towers on Christian church buildings became common around the eighth century! Spires were (and still are) most commonly used in Gothic architecture… particularly in cathedrals and churches symbolizing heavenly aspirations as well as offering a visual spectacle of extreme height exhibiting tall steeples symbolically pointed to heaven. It serves to remind all who worship Him that God should be held above all else as He sits at the highest point. Isn’t that interesting?? Honestly, we think this whole spectacle is nothing short of incredible!! It has four extra tall hand carved, sculpted spires and two lower ones in front just below the beautifully sculpted cross in the center. It is covered in hand carved Gothic details and features a pivoting center shrine which was most likely used to hold a chalice or the communion offering during church service. It is comprised of patinated wood and bears an all-over distressed finish and throughout the entire frame pieces of wood are missing here and there… it is absolutely beautiful in its rustic-ness! It already had the dark wood box behind the rotating shrine so we added a lighter wood support below and a slatted back piece and front stretcher to give the structure stability. When we obtained it we were told a fun story from a man that claimed it came from an old church in New Orleans… oooooooh!!! Not sure if it’s factual but it’s a cool story! We think it would make an awesome PET PALACE!! That’s right!!! The open bottom would be a great space to place a dog bed or a litter pan for you cat lovers and then set your furry friends’ food & water bowls above. Talk about the ultimate Cat Castle or Royal Residence for Rover!!!! OR… if you are into gaming and love yourself some Minecraft… talk about bringing your Sanctum build to life!! It would be an AWESOME shrine to display or store your gaming components and collectibles!! It’s a wonderful way to exhibit a lovely sculpture...
