Beardslee - One of the most prolific and sought after lighting designers of both Kerosene, Gas & Electric illumination from the 1880s on. In a 1905 copy of the Western Electrician publication it; “In this worthy work of meeting and elevating the public taste the Beardslee Chandelier Manufacturing Company of Chicago has been among the foremost.” One of the very few who signed their company name on their work. This chandelier has the Beardslee maker’s mark stamped onto its canopy.
