Oscar Counterweight
Starting at $6,800 USD
Oscar is our most versatile and popular fixture, hand crafted in a French workshop established over 150 years ago, employing historical techniques mastered over many centuries and generations. Each piece is unique, with a graceful canopy hand spun from a brass alloy that is rich in copper, resulting in a warm, nuanced finish. Nestled inside is a hand-blown tablet in our proprietary ivory toned glass; the interplay of this bespoke glass with the spun brass creates a quality of light that is quietly spectacular.
Oscar is available as a flushmount, pendant or counterweight in a selection of Signature and Distinctive alloys with natural finishes and bespoke glass.
Stephen Alesch and Robin Standefer’s Roman and Williams Guild Original Designs are each branded with our insignia and delivered with a Certificate of Authenticity.
