Thank you all so much!
As soon as my husband is home and can lift while I photograph, I'll post more photos! We live in Ontario, Canada and actually received this piece from a family friend. They are moving their parents into a smaller house and are unloading 50 years worth of stuff and this is just one of the treasures we've received!

Honestly, we're unsure but we are guessing (based on the wiring, lack of any stamps or markings and the metal) somewhere between 75 and 100 years, my husband thinks even older than that. Although without experience we could be totally wrong and it could be from the 60's! I love it, it really is beautiful! I haven't seen anything like it either. I'm excited to see what we can learn.

Good morning!
My husband and I were out treasure hunting the other day, and this beautiful chandelier is one of the things we found! Unfortunately my searches have found nothing, all we know is that it was likely given by family from Ireland. It is quite heavy probably about 40 pounds, made from cast metal, painted with brass lacquer in some places, and in other places it's painted with what seems to be some kind of white ceramic. The designs on the ceramic look as though they were once painted green and red. There are no identifying marks, except one stamp that reads "Empire" on the cast metal. Any help would be very greatly appreciated! Thank you!
