This really pleasant fixture from c. 1865 was originally
Gas, with a table under it. The extra Gas spigot is for
the attachment of a hose for a Gas table lamp that would
have sat on the table. This two light Gas chandelier
would make a great Kitchen Island or Kitchen Table
fixture in a Kitchen put in a period home. The period
2 and 5/8 shades could work with a lot of details found
in a new Kitchen.
The Oil Lamp Detail in the middle of the chandelier is a
design that you see quite often in these early gas
fixtures that bring in the details of the previous oil
period.
