About the Item

This pair of French ceiling light fixtures, dating to circa 1930, combines the natural elegance of alabaster with the sculptural strength of hand-forged iron. Each pendant features a carved alabaster bowl suspended within a robust hammered iron frame, the rim encased in textured metal and accented by dramatic curled scrolls that rise from the edge and arc upward with graphic flair. The curvilinear forms lend a decorative counterpoint to the otherwise industrial character of the forged material. The alabaster diffusers emit a soft, ambient glow when illuminated, and the organic veining in each bowl adds subtle variation and warmth. The fixtures are suspended by a simple iron chain with canopy, echoing the honest materiality and craftsmanship of the era. Ideal for an entryway, stairwell, or as a matched set over a long dining table, these lights balance vintage character with timeless appeal. Professionally rewired for contemporary use, they are sold ready to install.
