Appraisal of Art Deco/Nouveau slip shade chandelier

Mike asks;

 We’d like to find out the value of this Art Deco Chandelier. I believe it’s original to our house (built in the 30’s by an employee of the Cord Automobile Co, in Auburn IN)

 It’s very heavy (a magnet sticks).. is approximately 24 in tall, and 18 in wide at the bottom….. has 5 glass ‘bulb covers’, glass bottom, I think it’s made from cast (Iron?).. a magnet sticks and it has a rough texture…. very heavy… all glass is in excellent condition…

 

 

 

 AW says: That’s a stunning chandelier. Actually, it incorporates two styles those being Art Nouveau & Art Deco. It’s a slip shade chandelier and the metal is bronze coated. These styles are very popular and in the right market this would do well. It’s also a piece of vintage lighting that a dealer in the genre would be happy to have.
