This elegant Victorian piece has removable lamps with decoratively sculpted glass bases. Each is fitted with Holmes, Booth & Hayden oval burner assemblies the antique oval lamp chimneys are encircled by delicate fluted glass shades etched in a botanical chintz pattern.

The hanging body and the three arms of the chandelier are brass molded in handsome relief accented by swirled braces completing the graceful architecture of the piece.

Condition / Notes: This gorgeous brass and glass chandelier shows beautifully.

The fixture is designed to hang from a hook, it does not need to be installed into the ceiling and the pulley assembly is functional. The lamps display discoloration from lamp oil evaporating after years of disuse. The brass shows patina and tarnish.
