Grand Victorian/Art Nouveau Green Slag Glass & Brass Mascaron Pendant Light w/ Chain Fringe
Grand Victorian/Art Nouveau Green Slag Glass & Brass Mascaron Pendant Light w/ Chain Fringe
An expertly crafted, late 19th century, mosaic-style slag glass pendant light in a crowned, umbrella shape with subtle undulations; excellent lead work- the glass itself is textured and complex, in graduated sizes with unexpected variations in color; various green hues that glow more amber when illuminated, interspersed with a few pale blue and whites. The structure is solid brass and has a large, cast foliate crown, with chains, and a decorated stem and canopy. An extra special feature is the delicate, brass chain fringe that hangs from the rim. Another detail that sets this chandelier apart is the Mascaron motif; 6 cast brass grotesque masks look down from the rim. It has six medium base sockets, newly wired. Approximately 54" height x 32" diameter. 58.6 lbs.
