Art Deco Style Uranium Glass Chandelier

This appears to be a vintage chandelier, likely dating from the Art Deco period (1920s-1940s), which frequently incorporated streamlined designs and glass elements. The fixture features a central inverted bowl-shaped shade, described as uranium glass, suggesting a greenish hue under specific lighting conditions (e.g., UV light), though in natural light it presents with a translucent, light amber or milky off-white appearance with some mottled texture, indicating potential opalescence or a controlled swirl pattern in the glass. The metal components, including the chain, ceiling canopy, support arms, and four lamp holders, are crafted from a dark-toned metal, possibly brass or bronze with a rich, aged patina or an applied finish that gives it a deep brown or blackened bronze color. The central ceiling canopy has scalloped edges, a decorative detail echoed on the top rims of the four conical lamp holders that extend outwards from the main ring structure. These lamp holders are designed to house light bulbs, likely standard Edison screw base bulbs based on the era. Four gracefully curved metal rods connect the top canopy to the main circular frame that holds the glass bowl. The overall construction appears robust, assembled with visible hardware like small screws or rivets securing some metal sections. The visible condition suggests a natural aging process, with consistent patina across the metalwork and no obvious major dents or breaks, though closer inspection would be needed to confirm integrity of solder joints or connections. The glass bowl itself shows no apparent chips or cracks from this visual assessment. The quality of craftsmanship seems good, reflecting the typical mass-produced but still well-made lighting fixtures of its time, designed for both functionality and aesthetic appeal.
