EARLY TIFFANY STUDIOS CHANDELIER.

EARLY TIFFANY STUDIOS CHANDELIER. Absolutely magnificent Tiffany chandelier was commissioned by the 1st Presbyterian Church of Buffalo, New York in 1895. The lamp is complete with a photocopy of the church ledger showing payment in March of 1895 for the sanctuary lamp as well as a copy of a photograph of the sanctuary with this impressive lamp in place. The lamp has six bulging panels of amber rippled glass, each surrounded by amber faceted jewels. A triangular section between each bulging oval is done in beautiful pink, slightly opalescent glass with two center medallions of light blue translucent glass with metal overlay and faceted blue jewels encircling the medallion. The center of each medallion is finished with a lovely faceted jewel. The massive shade is suspended from six heavy rigid chains, every other link is a solid link with large faceted blue glass jewel. The chains are suspended from six arms at the top with a red faceted jewel adorning the end of each arm. A decoration of five descending chains fills the area between each support chain. Each decorative chain has a leaded glass leaf at the end. The bottom of the shade is finished with a round dome of pink and white, slightly opalescent glass, two rows of light blue faceted glass jewels and a center white opalescent turtleback. The fixture was originally a gas light fixture and has at some time been electrified for more modern use. The four socket cluster used to electrify the lamp is an original early Tiffany cluster. SIZE: 36″ dia. Overall approx. 68″ t. CONDITION: Very good to excellent with two blue faceted jewels missing from one chain and a small panel of blue glass missing from one triangle, which could easily be replaced. 5-69078 (500,000-700,000)
