Dealer notes

Vintage Moroccan Moorish Multicolored Glass and Filigree Lantern Chandelier, 1980 An exquisite vintage Moroccan Moorish hanging lantern chandelier, handcrafted in Marrakech, Morocco, circa 1980. This impressive 40-inch-tall lantern showcases traditional Islamic metalwork, intricate openwork filigree, and a striking combination of clear and jewel-toned colored glass. The architectural, multifaceted body features arched glass panels in vibrant shades of ruby red, emerald green, sapphire blue, and amber, framed by finely pierced metalwork with a rich, aged bronze-tone finish. Delicate geometric and arabesque patterns decorate the upper crown, surrounding borders, and elongated, pointed lower section, reflecting the artistry of traditional Moroccan and Moorish lighting. When illuminated, the combination of colored glass and intricate metal filigree creates a warm, atmospheric glow, casting decorative patterns of light and shadow throughout the surrounding space. Handcrafted by Moroccan artisans, this vintage lantern embodies the architectural influences of traditional Marrakech riads, Andalusian palaces, and Islamic decorative arts. Its sculptural silhouette and generous proportions make it an exceptional statement chandelier for a grand entryway, staircase, dining room, Mediterranean villa, or sophisticated contemporary interior. The lantern has been rewired in the United States for hardwired electrical installation and accommodates four candelabra-base bulbs. A hanging chain and ceiling canopy are included, and the chain length can be adjusted to suit the installation.
