They had a standard that they never lowered and the resulting work shows just that. They were clever too. They used this “clam shell” shade for two totally different lines. The first line catered to curvilinear lines and motifs and often used the popular polychrome designs with a base of subdued yellow complete with touches of Deco reds and greens... as these chandeliers so amply demonstrate. The more severe second line embraced the Art Deco Streamline movement. \u003cem\u003e(Courtesy of the Kelly Art Deco Lighting Museum.)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\r\n\tThe bowls have rather outstanding original colors that are still in very good condition.  Of course, there are rub marks here and there as with any antique...but very minor in the overall scheme of things.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\r\n\tThe shades are simply fantastic.

We are also supplying the mounting brackets (crossbars) for these chandeliers, so literally, you can hang these lights and have them working minutes after receiving them.
