Antique Brass 5-Light Scroll Arm Chandelier – Restoration Ready (AS IS)

Description :
This early 20th-century brass chandelier features a classic 5-arm scroll design with finely cast decorative flourishes and a tiered center column. Each socket is mounted on an elegant curled arm, enhanced by detailed openwork scrolls. The fixture shows an authentic aged patina and surface oxidation, indicative of its antique origins. The top stem, canopy, and original cloth-wrapped wiring are present, but the piece will require full rewiring and socket replacement to be brought to code. An ideal candidate for full restoration or repurposing in vintage-themed interiors.
