Meyda Custom Lighting Creates Custom Victorian Chandelier for Traverse City Opera House
March 5, 2010... Dr. Timothy Hanley and his wife Sally chose to donate a chandelier to the Traverse City Opera House as part of a major restoration project. The Traverse City Opera House was the first public building in Traverse City to feature electric lighting. The opera house, which was built in the 1890s in downtown Traverse City, is now a cultural hub in the area.
Meyda Custom Lighting of Yorkville, New York was contacted to custom design and manufacture a one-of-a-kind fixture. Meyda Custom Lighting is a Meyda Tiffany company and a leading manufacturer and designer of custom lighting and decor.
The original Victorian-style chandelier, which featured Vienna glass globes powered by gas, was lost long ago. No images of the fixture were available. The new chandelier was based on a conceptual design prepared by the opera house's restoration architects, Quinn-Evans of Ann Arbor, Michigan. The design represents an historic interpretation of lighting fixtures that were in use in the late nineteenth century.
