A very scarce original art deco 3-branch chandelier of cast aluminium lacquered in alternating blue-green and an aged off-white, with pink urea-formaldehyde (UF) shades – an early form of plastic. Although the maker is unknown, the cast metal parts show some hand-finishing, indicating that this was not mass-produced, and the imperial threaded parts show a British origin. The lamp has been dismantled, cleaned, rewired with a length of vintage-look 3-core twisted cable with an antique gold woven silk braid, and is ready to install. It is complete with a small length of original chain with a very art deco circle and rectangle design, and its original hooked ceiling rose. The lamp accepts three B22 bayonet cap bulbs. Minor wear to paint in places, but otherwise near mint.
