Edgar Brandt and Daum

Sotheby's New York, June 17, 1989, lot 703
Acquired from the above by the present owner

Overall in very good original condition. The metal elements with light surface scratches, rubbing and light discolorations scattered throughout. The recessed contours of the design with minor surface soiling consistent with age. The glass shades with a few very minor air bubbles and inclusions inherent in the making. When illuminated, the cameo glass presents with more nuanced tones of orange that are less red than shown in the catalogue illustration. The chandelier is electrically stable. An elegant design showing beautiful floral metal work in the central standard.
