A fixture of exceptional refinement and quality, sourced from the historic archives of W. Sitch & Co, Soho. This piece is attributed to the illustrious glassmakers F. & C. Osler, renowned for their purity of crystal and precision cutting. The centerpiece is a fine "mushroom" profile shade composed of satin crystal, featuring distinct radial "cut-to-clear" fluting that creates a striking contrast between the frosted surface and the polished cuts.
The glass is secured in a high-quality cast bronze flush-to-ceiling ring. The metalwork is detailed with a classic gadrooned or fluted band that echoes the rhythm of the glass cuts and relies on simple, elegant thumbscrews for securement. The bronze retains a warm, natural antique patina, making this low-profile fixture ideal for interiors where ceiling height is at a premium but elegance is required.
Fully restored, rewired, tested, and ready for installation. Wiring: We can wire this fixture to suit your location (US/UK/EU) standards.
