RARE Antique 1914 Bronze and Copper Orig Elks Lodge Pendant Wall Fixture
$375.00
Originally from an Elk’s Lodge in New York City this is a very rare and hard to find antique 1868 to 1914 Elks Hanging Pendant Fixture for wall, foyer or above doorway. I understand that very, very few of these exist today. The elk is made of solid bronze (NOT plated) and the back is solid copper (not plated). The chain is original. The insignia of the state of NY is prominently applied to the front. Size without the chain is 8″ across in diameter. Depth is 4 1/2″ from the tip of the antler to the back of the base. The back has a lot of age wear oxidation and patina which could be polished down to the copper. The front has an applied painted finish that is wearing off. The back has a lot of age patina. Other than this it is excellent. No dent or dings. No damage or repair. Sits flat on table without a wobble. Still all even. This piece would be lovely stripped down to its original bronze and copper. A great, authentic, original item for an advanced Elks collector.
