Wall Sconce Replication

Grand Light continues to prepare the surface of each component by cleaning, preparing, and media blasting in anticipation of base finish application. During this time, elements are inspected to assure all details are crisp. Each component is then heated before a patina is applied. The chasings are then hand burnished to create a custom iridescent finish.

Grand Light continues to progress in the replication of the Hudson County Courthouse chandelier, wall sconce, and torchiere. Fabrication of the replicated components began with making wax molds and patterns from existing components. Now that all wax patterns and molds are complete, the shell and raw castings process has begun.

Grand Light is creating custom lighting fixtures using the lost wax method of replication for a chandelier, wall sconce, and torchiere from the Hudson County Courthouse located in Jersey City, New Jersey.

Grand Light will be fabricating custom replications of a chandelier, wall sconce, and torchiere that is original to the building. One of each type of lighting fixture was removed on-site and delivered to Grand Light's lighting restoration and custom lighting manufacturing facility in Seymour, Connecticut.
