It is unmarked as well as the shades. They have a Quezal, Tiffany, Steuben look to them. With it featuring the trumpet-shaped iridescent glass shades it is a highly collectible masterpiece of Belle Époque decorative lighting era. This specific type of multi-arm fixture blends high-quality cast-bronze craftsmanship with the organic, flowing lines characteristic of the Art Nouveau movement. The heavy backplate and sprawling, vine-like tubular arms are crafted from cast bronze, often featuring original polychrome painted details or a rich, naturally aged dark patina. The five trumpet or lily-shaped shades are typically hand-blown art glass, exhibiting a luminous, metallic aurene or Favrile-style iridescent finish that dramatically shifts color when catching the light. The arms and backplate mimic asymmetrical, fluid botanical formssuch as crawling vines, leaves, or budding florawhich seamlessly "bloom" into the glass trumpet shades.
