Arts & Crafts Chandelier with a Great Owl Sculpture & Perfect Alabaster Shades

About the Item

Best ever condition 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 then maybe you should be its next custodian. And in this case the word custodian is not out of place at all, because this rare and entirely original antique chandelier really is of museum quality and condition. Thanks to its timeless design this easy to mount, six-light chandelier can be used and enjoyed in all kinds of interiors. And with all 6 lights burning in the evenings this unique chandelier will easily light up a regular size dining or kitchen area. In our photos we used 6 times 40 watt bulbs, but you could easily use 6 times 60 or 80 watts. That will provide more than enough light for every occasion and when you attach a dimmer, creating the perfect light everyday will be child's play. All six alabaster shades are in the best possible condition and the combination with the beautiful patina of this solid oak pendant is one that will never fail to impress. This unique chandelier too is rewired to the highest standard for safe and immediate usage in the USA as well and you will even be able to use your regular American E26 screwthread bulbs. If you like this one of a kind and top quality handcrafted chandelier as much as we do then you will love our price. Especially when taken into account that perfect packing and also worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 to 6 days are complimenatry. Maximum height x diameter: 33 x 34 inches. Diameter of the large and mint canopy: 7.9 inches. Maximum diameter of the highly stylish and excellent condition alabaster shades: 7.1 inches. Height of the perfect owl sculpture: 9.5 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish yet practical and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again).
