    (73 items)

    ted and i was over in portland to do some pick ups of items i had order for various restoration work for others -- we always have to stop in to "habitat for humanities" -- this heavy glass chandelier was just hanging with all the rest of the typical chandeliers -- with a price tag of $20 -- what a deal i told myself -- carefully took it down and went to pay -- the clerk said oh this is a white tag -- purchase cost $5 -- each of the glass shells weighs 1.5 grams -- ted and i are currently in the process of cleaning and getting it ready to install into our dining room

    NEED HELP FROM THE MEMBERS -- PIC 3 SHOWS THE MARKS "MFHO"

    pic 4 -- former chandelier

      I just bought an identical six shell chandeliers. Did you ever figure out who made it? 10% chance its barovier or seguso. The Initials could be MFHD but I am still looking on this side.
