Osler, each seated in a decorative cast brass ring set with a band of opalescent cabochon inserts. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eThe Glass\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe bowls are satin-finished crystal, cut with a tall petal-flute body beneath a scalloped upper border — a form immediately recognisable as Osler. The frosted surface gives a soft, even diffusion of the lamp while the cut ribbing catches just enough light to define the shape, the whole reading as controlled, glare-free light rather than raw brightness. The pair is consistent bowl to bowl, as an original matched pair should be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eThe Frame\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eAbove each bowl sits the detail that sets this pair apart: a decorative cast brass ring, worked with foliate ornament and set with a continuous run of opalescent glass cabochons that glow warmly when lit, ringing the fitting in soft points of milky light. The brass carries its original surface throughout, warm and untouched. Both fittings hang from decorative brass link chains to matching ceiling caps, consistent ring to ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eCondition\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eIn excellent original condition overall, with some slight staining to the satin glass and a couple of small chips to the outer edge of the bowls. The chips sit on the outer edge and are concealed when the bowl is seated in its ring — not visible in normal hanging. Honestly noted; neither affects the presence of the pair when installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eF. \u0026amp; C. Osler\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eFounded in Birmingham in 1807, F. \u0026amp; C. Osler became the pre-eminent name in cut crystal lighting of the nineteenth century, celebrated for the crystal fountain at the Great Exhibition of 1851 and for supplying lighting to royal and noble clients across Britain, India and the Middle East. The firm's command of high-quality lead crystal and precision hand-cutting remains the benchmark against which period cut-glass lighting is judged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eProvenance — W.

Sitch \u0026amp; Co. were founded in 1776 and traded from their Soho premises until relatively recently, supplying antique and period lighting to the country house, heritage and film and television industries for over two centuries. This piece forms part of a significant acquisition of approximately 200 pieces drawn directly from the Sitch archive — one of the most substantial collections of curated antique lighting to come to market in recent years. Further pieces from the same acquisition will be listed as they are prepared and photographed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eHospitality and high-end residential schemes where a characterful pair anchors a space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eDesigners and architects specifying period lighting with genuine maker pedigree\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eA pair of entrance halls, a landing and stair, or flanking a central hall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eCollectors seeking original, untouched Osler with a distinctive decorative detail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eTechnical Specification\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e F. \u0026amp; C.
