The fine chain that drapes down from the center shaft is not original but compliments the fixture nicely....this would have had some very fancy cast brass chain in this area at one time. Unfortunately at the time this fixture was found the original chain was missing. The ceiling cap that was found with this fixture may or may not be original.....we think the original ceiling cap would have probably been more decorative, keeping with the ornate design of the chandelier. Despite these minor short comings this fixture is a real find and looks spectacular....especially when lit. It has a total drop of 35" and an overall diameter of 25".

This is another great example of early American decorative art history that we are proud to be offering. Early American lighting of this quality and caliber is becoming very scarce. More photos available upon request.
