English (stamped Made In England to the canopies of each, although barely legible on one) Very well made with beautifully designed hanging loops above the baluster stems ( these have a Provisonal Patent number on and open and close to accept a chain ) Now highly polished, reglazed with "imperfect" glass, and rewired with 1meter (exposed) fabric flex and new (British made) lampholders. Come with original unpolished chains (4.5" and 10" lengths) although new solid brass chain can be supplied if required.
