Kerosene Chandelier, 1885-1900
- Candle Chandelier, circa 1795 - This late 18th century chandelier likely illuminated a grand parlor or dining room in the house of a wealthy individual in one of America's large coastal cities. Imported from England or Ireland, it was intended to impress visitors with the good taste of its owner. The glass column, arms, and crystal pendants would have reflected and refracted candlelight into dark corners.
