Gothic ornamentation and applied embellishment is what distinguishes these fixture from just providing light to functional works of beautiful art. Tutor & Gothic characteristics in the bronze involved metalwork, stylized uncurling fern fronds, crockets, and garland of fully developed leaves. Very important ornamentation with its symbolic design dating back to the 14th century. Amazing evolving form still in design today, all in these 2 fixtures of bronze metalwork and bent glass illumination! Shown with original copper gilt brass shades.
We find that early antique lighting was designed as objects of art and we treat each fixture with careful attention to preserve original beauty. Our fixtures are cleaned, rewired & are ready to hang, following UL standards. We can work with you on code requirements.
