This is a very good looking antique Arts & Crafts slag glass chandelier.
Unfortunately, it does not have the lighting hardware.
I would estimate it dates circa 1910s or 1920s. It actually appears to be on the cusp of the Arts & Crafts and Art Nouveau eras.
Including the chain and the top link, it measures 23 1/2 inches tall (59.7 cm). The fixture itself measures 8 inches tall x 17 1/2 inches wide (20.3 cm x 44.5 cm).
I am sensing this may have hung in a theater, g...iven its look.
I believe the detailing is pressed brass. It is quite beautiful.
I’m not exactly sure how the wiring would hook up here. I believe there may have been three separate lights at each of the pieces of hardware inside the top of the fixture.
I’m not sure if the chain is original.
One of the rectangular pieces of slag glass at the top cracked at some point, as there is clear tape going over it. There is a tiny crack at the bottom where the flat piece of decoration is attached. Otherwise, the other pieces are all in very good condition.
The flat floral piece of detail at the center of the bottom of the fixture has some type of solder material going around the entire piece (please see close up photo). I don’t know if this is original or not. But when you are standing away from it, when it is hanging, you hardly notice it.
It weighs 6 pounds 1 1/2 ounces (2.76 kg).
