Chinoiserie Tole Chandeliers

Italian tole looks nothing like Pennsylvania Dutch tole. They are both painted metal, but that’s about where it ends.
Italian tole chandeliers usually have painted fruit and flowers, but Chinoiserie chandeliers with bamboo and pagodas are a theme, too.

Some tole is still being made. You can find some at:
- Deep Discount Lighting Italian Tole and Floral Chandeliers
- Deep Discount Lighting Oriental and Asian Inspired Chandeliers and Pendants

The best place to find Italian Tole is on eBay.

I found some really amazing pieces on Two Worlds Arts. But they don’t sell direct to the public. There are no prices. You have to go through an architect or designer.
