There was a gigantic electrolier, ten feet high, with upward-curling gilt branches opening into cloudy glass lilies of light. |
Each electrolier is linked to a corner of the lobby skylight by a narrow rootlike strip of ornament. |
At the bottom of the stairs my hand met an electric switch. I turned it, and a great electrolier of twelve red globes flooded the cellar with a red light. |
It was heated with gas fires, and an elaborate glass electrolier provided light. |
