    Hello. I'm posting to see if anyone is familiar with the chandelier in the attached photo. A friend of mine has removed it from his home and is trying to figure out the best way to either sell it or donate it but isn't sure which way to turn. It is original to his home which was built in 1925. Is anybody familiar with this fixture and would you have a guess on the value? It has original wiring and is in working condition. Thank you!

    komokwa The Truth is out there...!

    to estimate a fair market value we will require,

    accurate dimensions of the size , height , width, etc......
    height of candlesticks , their composition and a pic of the interior.......
    close up of the ceiling attachment and the main body of the chandelier ......
    what max voltage does it take.
    is there noticeable damage to any one part of the metal.......?
    photo's of any marks, numbers or labels or names attached to any place on the item itself...
    a close up photo of the wiring..
    where your friend lives.
    how he plans to sell it .
    is it in working order.

    Placing a value on an item without proper information...... is just a guess....& would likely be wildly inaccurate ! ;)

    Nothing particularly notable or valuable about this fixture. Sell in a garage sale or fb marketplace for what you can get or donate. Might get more on ebay. See below.

    Found this one very similar (some parts identical?). Hard to know what it actually sold for. Asking price was quite a bit higher than I would expect for my market.

    Around here, $20 at a yard sale. Maybe. There isn't much call for them.

    Thanks, everyone! A family member ended up taking it to keep it in the family. I appreciate the attention and responses! Cheers!
