Artisan-made in morocco.
Material: Brass. Lightly antiqued brass finish.
This gorgeous light fixture comes with one foot of chain and matching canopy/ceiling plate.
Wiring: Four bulbs cluster 45-60 watts bulb. For use in dry area.
Production method: Using a fine blade fretsaw tool, the master artisan starts by placing a paper pattern of a complex drawing onto a brass sheet. Then carefully does the intricate cutting work following the curves of the pattern on paper. Brass is cut, sculpted and engraved with extreme finesse. We use the same hand tool that jewelry artisans use to make the small metal openings for these lights.
The fretsaw tool gives this style of Moroccan lighting a high level of craftsmanship not found otherwise in the standard Moroccan lanterns. The high quality of these Moroccan lamps is enhanced by hand-engraving over the brass metal giving them added texture and beauty. An art of brass ware which is still practiced among fine craftsmen in Morocco.
Wiring and shipping not included.
