A wonderful antique Art Deco slip shade chandelier, made and signed by Lincoln Company, and dating from the 1930’s. This six-light chandelier begins with a leaf-and-dart canopy, coming down in a single chain to a trumpet-shaped flower, with five chains supporting the chandelier body. The slipper shades are ornamented with an overlapping design of flowers and circles. The chandelier frame features a matching stylized flower design with geometric details on a hammered background. This light fixture is in very good antique condition with some chips on the shades (pictured) and chips around the edge of the center shade (not visible when the shade is in place).

This chandelier is 16 ½” wide, 18 ½” tall (body only), and 32” long overall.   « Less
