ID help required amazing metal chandelier
Dear Forum,
this is quite a large beast, well made with brushed metal exterior and white lacquered interior. A fabulous structure, the panels have some light rust which I am wondering how best to remove, fine wire wool?
Also help with ID would be very much appreciated, the actual bulb holder has a small label 'Underwriters Laboratories Inc' USA, which may be a clue?
many thanks in advance.
Please excuse dodgy white background editing, but it does help to highlight the silhouette.

I had one of those
years ago, bought it at auction to resell. My had copper plates but otherwise was the same, including the little conical screw heads. I believe mine was marked Sonneman somewhere.
