Was just browsing Wayfair & stumbled upon these, so had to share … they appear to be a French-cut crystal light fixtures! :love: I’d never seen anything like these before, but to be fair I haven’t been looking at light fixtures lately.

:love: That is beautiful @xsouzie How do you like the light cast from it in-person? I may have to give one a whirl.

I’m such a Wayfair junkie … I just had a set of these delivered today and I’m not even a ’gazing ball’ kinda gal. They are so much prettier in person! I hope to put them out tomorrow, but they put off a subtle glitter at night as well.

That's so pretty!

The light fixtures throw off those rays of light across the ceiling but other than that, they light up the area really well. I don't turn them on much though. One is in my hallway and the other one is in my prayer/meditation room where I usually go into during mornings.

I am also a Wayfair junkie and got 98% of our light fixtures from there. :lol: Their customer service is just amazing!

We have a few french art deco and other genuine antique light fixtures from the 1920s and 30s. They are all in our NYC apartment (in every room) though and I don't have many photos. Let me see if I can find any. We adore them and their history and charm. We collected them one by one at a favorite antique shoppe. So many treasures.

Found one.
Here is our overhead in the library room.

In every room including our foyer we have art deco antique overhead lights and lamps but unfortunately not many photos. When I get back to NYC I will take some more if I remember.

Found one more but sorry for the weird perspective. It was taken a long time ago with probably my flip phone. Remember those haha.

The Art Deco ceiling fixture in my hallway. Found about 40 years ago in an architectural salvage store that has - alas - long since bitten the dust.

I know that light! Almost bought it on the other side of the country! So iconic-looking!

Beautiful. Chic.

It’s one of my favorites that we have. The other favorite is a light blue French Art Deco fixture we have in one of our hallways. I wish I had a photo of it. I fell in love with it the moment I saw it. And had to have it.
 
Another … and it has a ton of great reviews!

I may need to give thought to swapping out the fixture in our foyer; wonder if hubs would notice. :think:

I've seen these IRL. Reminded my of my asscher eternity ring. I wanted one, but way too much to keep clean.
 
My hairdresser's have these throughout the salon. They sparkle beautifully
 
Found one more photo. I wish I could find a photo of the antique blue light fixture. Here is another one we have in one of our hallways in the NYC apartment.

I liked yours so much that I took a photo of it in the shop a few years ago (but ultimately not enough light for our application):

This is our only "original" -- but the "horns" were re-chromed and the glass is repro (sorry for the terrible photos). Bought ~ 25 years ago. Guy said "We pulled it out of a basement in Ohio." There were two and I wish we had bought both.
