Crystal chandeliers have been modernized to look like this graceful fixture. It obviously is intended for a period room.
BY MARY MARGARET M'BRIDE
Times Special Writer
NEW YORK, June 29.—The all-|_
purpose lighting fixture is a feature that appears in various guises in nearly every new lighting display. Designed to combine good glare-
less light with simple, unobtrusive |
lines, the new type of fixture is not tagged for use ‘in boudoir, dining room or any one place. It fits anywhere. :
Instead of straining to comprom- | -
ise with the past, experts have devised lamps, center lights and brackets that are whole-heartedly up-to-date. = Result: blend with anything from antique rococco to Grand Rapids at its most starkly modern. Kurt Versen, whose lights have won many prizes, believes there is no justification for fixtures reminiscent of gas chandeliers, oil lanterns: or candle flames. Besides being inefficient, - they are decoratively inconsistent, he points out,
Recently an American collector of |
antiques chose Versen lights "of modern lines to go into an original Sir Christan eighteenth century English manor house. . -
Dark Finishes Recommended
Be. careful about the finish of the fixture and it will blend with any decorative style, say all the experts.
