It’s been spray painted so you’d most likely be looking for a bronze or black original light.

yes simple basic chandy.

The leaves in the design are acanthus leaves which are a pretty common motif in neoclassical design. Searching for "acanthus chandelier" go a hit on 1st Dibs, unfortunately already sold, for a "Large Painted Iron Acanthus Chandelier." I added "iron" to my search terms and found a non-electrified one at KRB (https://krbnyc.com/inventory/early-20th-century-tole-acanthus-leaf-chandelier/). So there are some search terms for you. Everything I found that looked similar was vintage. Here's another link for a wood chandelier with a similar motif (it looks like it's still available but it was posted two years ago, so who knows).

Thank you! I actually own this one (hanging in house we purchased) and was interested to know if it is from Europe/ antique / had value before we remove and replace it.

Well, considering the prices that some of the similar fixtures I saw were going for, you might have a gold mine there. I was hard-pressed to find anything that size for under $10k and some ormolu versions were going for many times that. I thought you were looking to buy one and feeling bad that everything I found was so expensive. I feel better knowing you are on the selling end.

My previous house built in 1954 had a similar but smaller chandelier. It was a matte cream color with some gold painted accents on the edges. It looked much better after being painted with several layers of pearl paint which covered the gold and gave it a nice glow.

Yup, here it is. Even have the matching sconces for it. I purchased these 18 years ago from either Home Depot or Lowes. It is a bronze color and those are the original lampshades.

Now why didn't the Home Depot version come up on my search? Probably because "acanthus" is too highfalutin a word for Home Depot, even if it was the only way to get any similar-looking fixtures to come up on a search.

cawaps, probably because they were most likely discontinued years ago. Styles change and home improvement stores are constantly changing out their inventory.

I find it amazing that someone here has the exact fixture and she also happened to look at this thread!

Me too!

jalarse I am amazed that you have this exact same light fixture! Thank you for sharing! If you have any idea of its value, pls lmk.....I'm replacing it and will likely post it...unless you need another one ;) Thanks again!

its worth about 50 bucks.

mariacmp, your most welcome. Since it was 18 years ago and if memory serves me it was around $200 for the chandelier. And somewhere in the neighborhood of $100 for the two sconces. I think I’ll keep it since if I changed out the chandelier I would probably have to change out the sconces as well and they make great bookends. The opening in the living room ceiling to the library above is octagon shaped that’s the reason I chose a chandelier with “8” light fixtures. Best of luck to you.
