The Problem:
Crystal chandelier would not stay together properly and would not hang straight.
Crystal arms and candlesticks were crooked and some sockets were broken.
The chandelier was covered with a thick layer of dust and dirt that seemed baked on.
Some crystal prisms were detached and some were missing.
The Repair:
The chandelier was photographed with hand written notes to assure correct re-assembled.
The chandelier was unwired then all parts were completely disassembled.
Each component part was hand washed in the sink with detergent.
The cleaned component parts were then laid out on the work table in preparation for assembly.
Then everything was re-assembled and rewired.
But the chandelier would not stay straight.
It would repeatedly fall over to the side just like the BEFORE photo.
Then we discovered the manufacturing defect.
The crystal scroll arms in the top section were mounted on a 5" wide flat steel plate.
The plate was suppose to fit snugly into the top of a shallow bowl located beneath the plate.
Unfortunately the plate and the shallow bowl were exactly the same width.
This prevented the plate from "fitting" and instead slid around on top of the bowl.
This caused the bowl to rock from side to side as it did not have a flat foundation to rest upon.
Our "fix" was to grind the plate down to the correct diameter to fit the top of the shallow bowl.
We also added a flat chrome check ring under the shallow bowl to prevent rocking side to side.
The crystal chandelier then hung straight and stable and could be carried about as necessary for hanging.
