ANT-1268 Antique Art Deco Slip Shade Fenwick Pendant c.1933
Authentic Art Deco, Slip Shade, polychrome painted 2-shade pendant, Circa 1933. The finish, while being cleaned up “a mite“, is original and simply beautiful to the max. Hard to find a much nicer antique slip shade pendant than this one.
Wonderful condition. The shades are simply a treat and in remarkable condition. Probably made by Consolidated Glass or another quality glass house.
Since we are curators of the only American Art Deco Lighting Museum, (see www.thedecomuseum.com) we can tell you a bit about this light.
It was made by a firm in Cleveland, Ohio called: The Frankelite Co.
They used a logo which was a stylized “F” in a diamond device and issued their products under the trade name of "Diamond Lighting Equipment."
This light, Circa 1933, was part of their "Fenwick Series."
Frankelite was a rather small firm that very little is now known about. We have a few examples of their work, and they are always rather unique and attractive stand alone lights. The name and date of these fixtures has been verified by literature from the company as 1933.
Measurements: The overall hang height is 23”. The fixture has a spread of about 7 1/2" narrow-wise by 10” across two shades. This fixture can be lengthened by adding chain links.
The chandelier has been totally rewired with high grade sockets and new central lead wire in our UL registered shop. Capable of up to 100 watts per socket, for a total of 200 watts.
Price: Completely re-wired UL antique Fenwick pendant by Frankelite: $850.00 plus careful shipping.
