Edwardian Brass 4 Light Chandelier with Cherubs

1900 - 1920
Description

This Edwardian cast brass chandelier is superb quality. It has a figure of eight hook to the top, going into a moulded column with cherubs surrounding a face. The main section is suspended from this with C scroll dragons. The main central section is decorated with cherubs. There is a repeat patterns with a dental moulding, going around the top and lower ring. This piece has a small bayonet bulb holder in the centre. Each arm has a figure of a man with a goatee adorned with Sea Scrolls and a small screw bulb holder. There is a green fabric lampshade which comes with this piece, it has been cleaned but has the odd mark here and there (see pictures). The tassels around the bottom are made from coiled brass to get a gold appearance. I think the shade is serviceable but if not to your taste, you can see from the pictures it looks great without a shade. I do know a company that would be happy to recover this with new silk if needed. The measurements of the top ring is 41 cm the measurement of the bottom ring is 48 cm the height of the piece not including the shade is 89cm. C1910

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Edwardian brass chandeliers often incorporate classical motifs such as cherubs, swags, and garlands, drawing inspiration from Neoclassical and Rococo Revival styles. During this period from 1901 to 1910, electric lighting became more prevalent, leading to ornate cast brass fixtures designed to accommodate early electric bulbs.

These light fixtures were predominantly constructed from cast or stamped brass, often paired with fabric, silk shades, or glass light shades. Detailed decorative mounts, filigree bands, and textile fringes were frequently added to soften the direct light of early electric fittings.

Authentic pieces typically feature heavy cast brass components, original cast screw threads, and signs of natural age such as patination or oxidisation. Look for period-specific motifs, hand-finished detailing, and historical wiring channels along the central column or decorative arms.

Positioning an ornate brass fixture above a dining table or in an entryway creates a focal point that contrasts with clean modern lines. Pairing traditional brass lighting with contemporary colour palettes or minimalist furniture adds architectural depth to the space.

Dust the fixture regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth to clean the metal and fabric components without causing damage. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive polishes, as these can strip away original patination or protective lacquers.
