ANT-756 Streamline Art Deco Slip Shade Chandelier by Halcolite
Halcolite was one of a select few slip shade light makers who made some high-end quality products. Halcolite was in Brooklyn, New York at 68 34th Street from their catalog "T" for the year 1937 - 1938. They used Consolidated glass products and designs quite a bit to give their glassware a lovely accent.
This is a 6-shade chandelier with fancy stem, which was top-of-the-line for this style of Streamline chandelier. Instead of the main bowl being cast like so many others, it is formed from sheet metal by deep drawing, and then working by hand. It does give it a more "engine feel" that is so common for the Streamline movement.
The shades are light amber (that Halcolite called golden-toned) & in good...remarkable...condition.
