Gorgeous Antique 24 ARTS & CRAFTS Style Stained Glass Ceiling Lamp c. 1920
Gorgeous Antique 24 ARTS & CRAFTS Style Stained Glass Ceiling Lamp c. Gorgeous Antique 24 ARTS & CRAFTS Style Stained Glass Ceiling Lamp , circa 1920. FREE PICK-UP IN THE CHICAGOLAND AREA.
Up for your consideration is a gorgeous antique Arts & Crafts style ceiling lamp. The piece is likely made by Wilkinson, and features brilliant dichroic glass throughout.
The shade is 24" in diameter, and 12" tall. It retains its original sockets, bakelite light switches, and heavy hanging chains. I found 4 small heat cracks, and some irregularity to two of the slag glass panels as manufactured. Overall, this is in as fine condition as you are likely to find. The lamp has been professionally rewired, with each of the 4 sockets having a separate cord, which all meet at the top of the chain.
It hangs down 28 from the ceiling. The sockets are original, and they date from 1915 - 1920. The lamp was inspected by a prestigious lamp collector, who wanted photos for his website (the largest one for antique lamps on the Internet).
He was unable to determine the maker, but provided about 4 guesses. He was especially interested because this is because the entire shade is made of di-chroic or reactive glass. Other than Tiffany, this type of glass is only used as accents to "milky" or opaque slag glass.
He said this lamp was very unusual. This quote is for the Continental U.
