The Gas Chandelier Period began in the 1850's and
followed the use of fluids (e.g. kerosene, oil)
to power chandeliers. Gas was manufactured from coal. This was
an improvement from a safety point of view because fluids would
tend to flow and drip to cause fire hazards.
A typical
gas chandelier (e.g. 3 arm gas chandelier) would
have 3 arms with bowl shades on the end of the arms
housing a gas flame that would light the room .
The wattage output from gas chandeliers was fairly
low.
Antique Gas fixtures can be placed in
many of the rooms in your home and vary in size and detail.
