linen shade, a three-light and a five-light chandelier and an ADA fluorescent wall sconce in an
Olde Bronze finish.

Asian influence
and a Tannery Bronze finish. The family’s hexagonal glass features warm golden ivory
tones with a root beer wavy glass trim. A delicate filigree pattern lines each shade and an amber
sphere accent adds a dynamic to several pieces in the family. A three-light island light, a
