(A) This four-arm fixture by Boretti
of Lyon has such elegant simplicity, one accentuated by its four
acid-finished bowl shades and redone brushed nickel finish. It
hangs at 27 inches length, and is about 18 across.
Mary Anne scarfed this Boretti
up! SOLD!!

(B) Fresh from Jack's famous restoration
cannon, this exquisite Moderne beauty hangs about 17 inches long
and is about 22 inches across. The metal is all solid brass and
it's just been entirely rechromed. It takes three bulbs, so you'll
have lots of light. $2900. (e-mail

(C) A Moderne Degue probably from
the late 30's or so... with clean lines... yet wildly stylized
flowers! The curved rods add a nice touch. This fixture hangs
about 25 inches long and is about 18 wide. $2100. (e-mail

(D) Original pewter finish over
solid brass or bronze. A fabulously stepped shaft, minimalist
design elements -- a very powerful effect, with beautifully flared
acid-etched shades. This hangs about 28 inches long, and has
a nice wide span of about 30 inches. Perfect for a high-style
Art Deco dining room! Only $4100. (e-mail

(E) Truth be known (and how often
is it in present-day America?!), I have two of these. Well, wouldn't
you if given the chance?! It's massively heavy, in spite
of its slender and svelt appearance, being of silvered bronze.
The three shades on this one are unsigned Schneider. It hangs
at 30 inches long and is about 22 across. $3700. (e-mail

(F) Here's a signed Verlys bowl
with superb dimension... the clusters of flowers protrude a good
inch beyond the rest of the bowl. A spare chromed vintage hanging
apparatus keeps all the attention focussed on this high quality
piece of glass. As pictured it hangs 28 inches long (and can
be shortened), and is about 15 across. Only $1700. (e-mail

(G) This vintage Art Deco bowl
with Degue-style design elements is supported by a new silk cord
from France which is electrified inside the cord. The canopy
is solid brass with a brushed finish; it can easily be chromed
or nickled, in a smooth or brushed finish. About 26 long, about
16 across. (e-mail

SORRY, THIS ONE'S SOLD. ASK
ABOUT SIMILAR ONES IN STOCK!

(H) Chrome, copper and wood, a
likely combination!! Hence my delight when I stumbled upon this
one in La Belle France. I suspect it was fabricated in the 40's,
but who knows, perhaps the late 30's. After all, who was doing
much of anything in France in the 40's besides recovering from
you-know-what? In impeccible condition, measuring 32 long, about
26 wide. $2800. (e-mail

(I) Here's an exquisitely beautiful
fixture by Hettier-Vincent, one of the more esoteric and sought-after
of the French lighting manufacturers. The fixture hangs 28 inches
long, and it's about 20 inches across. The metal (solid brass)
has been freshly re-nickled and patinated. Oh, did I mention
that I've sold this one?! But don't despair, I have another,
identical, with the exception that it's a bit shorter, just right
for your hacienda with the 9-foot ceilings. I just
wanted to show you this one so you'd see how great yours is going
to look once it's been replated! Tricky, aren't I? The other
one hangs 23 inches long and it's about the same in diameter,
19. All done up and replated: $3900. (e-mail
