Text Appearing Before Image:
d after the fashion of a bracket with several-candles. Plate 219. The Chandelier. 1. Modern, style of the German Renascence. 2. German, Renascence, Hemispherical, for 8 candles.3—6. Modern, bronze and wrought-iron. 7. Modern, French, by the sculptor Villeminot, (Lart pour tous) The Modern Lamp. (Plate 220.) The principal value, of the modern Lamp, lies in the technicalcompleteness, and adaptation to its purpose. There is, it is true,no such wealth of artistic fancy as is shown by Antique Lamps; butstill some good examples may be found among the two or threefundamental forms of the Paraffin-lamp, with which we have mostlyto do. Metal, glass, porcelain, and majolica, again appear as materials.As a general rule we have a profiled foot, on which the oil-receiverrests, from which latter the burner, chimney, and globe rise, (figs. 1and 2). More richly finished examples have a masked receiver, the latterbeing enclosed by a vase (figs. 3, and 4). Attempts have lately been 376 METAL OBJECTS.
