    Hi all, could someone help me identifying these chandeliers? They were in the house my wife and I bought recently and we would like to know more about them.

    These is a wedding cake 5 tier chandelier, the bulb mount brand reads "DEAL" and it is made from steel and crystal. I have seen one very similar in Ruby Lane, it was catalogued as a 1880s piece... is that so? Can I get ready to cancel the mortgage? :)

    Looks very similar to the light fixtures my parents installed in a house in 1963.

    That socket and ceiling canopy say 60s to me. I suppose it is possible that they are not original to the fixture. I see the one on pinterest but there are not enough details to say whether or not it is truly old.

    Thank you! It is kind of a Frankenstein indeed.

    I have one of these with brass fittings and without the crystal leaves around the top. I thought it was a 60's or 70's piece. When I brought it into a lighting place to replace some wiring, they told me it was 1920's.
