Description
C-20070
Ornate cast iron hanging lamp frame featuring elaborate Gothic-inspired scrollwork and pierced detailing throughout. The structure is suspended by multiple chains from a flared upper canopy, leading down to a circular gallery ring designed to support a glass font or shade. Below, an intricately cast openwork frame extends downward in a tapered form, terminating in a decorative lower platform intended for an oil burner assembly. The casting is richly detailed with repeating foliate motifs, quatrefoil elements, and geometric accents, all rendered in a rugged, utilitarian iron form that reflects both decorative ambition and structural durability. The surface retains a dark, aged finish with visible texture from the original casting process.
Shows heavy surface oxidation and patina throughout consistent with age and long-term use. No glass components present. Wear to edges and high points, with accumulated dust and minor surface irregularities visible across the casting. Structurally intact with all primary elements present.
10” Diam x 39” H
