Description

This late nineteenth-century gilt bronze and brass Eastlake-style chandelier has four lights, etched glass shades, and foliate scroll details. The entirety of the chandelier emphasizes neoclassical iconography and stylings. The body is adorned with mythological sea horses and Zephyr faces, while the central column is embellished to look like an ancient Greek vase and the arms have columnar detailing.

The Eastlake movement, which spanned approximately from 1870 to 1900, was started by British architect and writer Charles Eastlake and is associated with late Victorian-era aestheticism. Eastlake published his thoughts on design reform. The movement focused on the ethos that furniture in people’s homes should be attractive, well-made, and produced by manufacturers who enjoyed their work. Eastlake antique lighting was characterized by simple, rectilinear often flat construction, with no excessive curves. The hardware design is pulled from a variety of past eras, borrowing from different cultures and historical design eras.

Eastlake lighting designs are typically impressive chandeliers like this one. This gorgeous neoclassical Eastlake chandelier would make for a striking addition to any space.

Dimensions without ceiling cover and chain: H=28 in. W=27 in. D=27 in. 30 lbs.

Condition

This chandelier is rewired to meet US electrical standards. It takes four base-size lights on the arm sockets and four candelabra-base lights in the center, incandescent or LED. This fixture requires a canopy and chain which is not included. Three feet of wire at the top can be adjusted to the preferred height.

The shades have small flea-bite chips, especially in the exterior and interior rims (see images) but none are cracked or broken.

The stem has scratches and a small dent above the body dish (see images).

There are some inconspicuous areas where you can see corrosion marks on the chandelier, especially on some of the zephyr faces and the main body stem (see images).

Dimensions without ceiling cover and chain: H=28 in. W=27 in. D=27 in. 30 lbs.
