This information is from the 1936 Williamson catalog, which also tells us that this chandelier was part of an exclusive line designed by Williamson that they dubbed ....\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThe Series Thirty Line\u003c\/span\u003e.  \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\r\n\tThis 5-light model was THE top of the line exclusive model in that line.  There was no 6-light model made. Other lights in this same line, cost as much as 2\/3rds less.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\r\n\tThe chandelier body is cast iron and has been finished to a pewter high\/low finish..and here and there...there is a slight coloring of reddish rust suggestion—rather rustic antique. It does blend right in with the pewter finish but it is there too. Williamson also did a polychrome finish for this light.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\r\n\tThere is a cast iron finishing design that has, over the years of handling, broken off. It really gets lost from view with all the design going on, but it is missing and we have included a picture of that missing decor. Minor..but must be mentioned.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\r\n\tThis chandelier was re-wired, in our UL shop, in the exact same manner that Williamson created it.  It is now currently UL standard and ready to install. This fine light has the original cast-in Williamson signature behind each shade—see pix.  \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\r\n\tWilliamson was later bought out by Beardslee who changed this signature even in the 1930's to their own name, so, this is one of the earlier one.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\r\n\tThe shades are in great condition. They are substantial shades with some thicknesses approaching 1\/4” thick. The pictures speak well of the light and if you have been looking for a very special rustic light, this might just be it.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\r\n\t\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurements:\u003c\/strong\u003e The light measures 28 inches in height while having a diameter of 18”.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\r\n\t\u003cstrong\u003ePrice:\u003c\/strong\u003e Price adjusted for the slight missing piece: Normally $1,250 has been reduced to $950, plus shipping.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"0","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49997207142637,"sku":"ANT-1138","price":950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/5799\/6269\/files\/ANT-1138_c__Fabulous-Williamson-Slip-Shade-Art-Deco-Five-Slip-Shade-Chandelier.jpg?v=1779309617","url":"https:\/\/jn2vnf-0i.myshopify.com\/products\/fabulous-williamson-slip-shade-art-deco-five-slip-shade-chandelier","provider":"Vintage Hardware \u0026 Lighting","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
