Steady progress is being made on the restoration of a wide variety of lighting fixtures from Yale Calhoun College. The fixtures, ranging from outdoor lanterns to wall sconces to large chandeliers, and are made from a variety of materials including brass, copper, and iron.
The fabrication of a custom designed candle lantern and matching pedestal has been completed. The raw prototypes were constructed using 24 gauge copper, and are scheduled to be given a bronze finish this coming Monday.
Grand Light's restoration team recently completed the restoration of ten gothic-style chandeliers for the auditorium of the Washington Irving Intermediate School, located in Tarrytown, New York.
The custom lanterns are modifications of an existing lantern the client came across, which can be seen in the picture below.
All ten chandeliers from the Washington Irving Intermediate School have now undergone a complete restoration and are ready to be transported back to Tarrytown, NY, one full week ahead of schedule.
Following the approval of the prototype chandelier restoration, Grand Light's restoration team is nearing completion of the remaining nine fixtures from the auditorium at Washington Irving Intermediate School and is preparing to ship them back to Tarrytown, NY.
