An exceptional and large-scale suspended fixture sourced from the historic archives of W. Sitch & Co, Soho.
This piece creates an immediate visual impact with its heavy cast brass gallery, which features distinct high-relief Lion’s Head masks interspersed with decorative scrollwork. The metalwork holds a substantial deep bowl of satin crystal. The glass features a soft frosted upper section to diffuse light, while the lower hemisphere is detailed with a sharp diamond lattice cut that adds sparkle and texture.
A remarkable example of early 20th-century Neoclassical design, perfectly suited to grand entrance halls, dining rooms, or commercial spaces seeking a fixture with authority and character.
