Historical Origin And Design Inspiration

Antlers have been used for centuries by many Native American tribes as tools, decoration, and weapons. Some creation myths have the deer as the first parents or humans and they are often associated with fertility and humankind. There are also tribes who have deer clans and a Cherokee story about how the deer won its horns from the trickster rabbit.

Artfactory Custom Antler Lighting and Antler Chandeliers Features:

Our Patented Hand Forged Hidden Iron Super Structure Keeps You Safe

• we construct an internal frame of 3/8″ to 1″diameter iron that is hand forged and hammer struck to shape
• This iron frame strengthens the structure of the chandelier, conceals all wiring inside wiring boxes and also has the mounting point for the iron 1200 pound test chain.
• This method connects the chain directly to your solid beam or ceiling application through decretive cap for a positive direct mount to your structure.
• This allows for the weight of the antler chandelier to be on the steel frame direct to a solid beam not the unstable antler bone structure.
• This type of frame and hanging application also allows for the use of a (customer supplied) chandelier remote winch that allows you to remotely raise and lower your chandelier for service and maintenance.
All Antlers Offered By SAF Are Wired Internally And U.L. Listed. Using a 1/4″ thick steel central wire enclosure that is attached to the steel main structure we secure each antler end individually to this super structure. We then bore through each lighted horn to run our wiring internally. This allows for each light socket and wire to be able to be replaced with little effort. All SAF lighting is hipot tested according to the rigorous rules and guide lines of Underwriters Laboratories. After passing this test they may carry a UL seal of approval. These seals are recognized by building code inspectors the world over.
All Antlers Are Natural Colors – All Iron Parts Are Well Hidden Using Various Colors Of Hand Applied Iron Oxide Patinas. Our beautiful patina finishes are hand applied using a special patented process where oxides are bonded into the metal at over 1000 degrees. This permanent finish beautifies with age.

More Information About Antlers

Deer communicate in many different ways including sounds, scent and marking. All deer are capable of producing audible noises, unique to each animal. Fawns release a high pitched squeal, known as a bleat, to call out to their mothers. Does also bleat, as well as grunt. Grunting produces a low, guttural sound that will attract the attention of any other deer in the area. Both does and bucks snort, a sound that often signals danger. As well as snorting, bucks also grunt at a pitch that gets lower with maturity. Bucks are unique, however, in their grunt-snort-wheeze pattern that often shows aggression and hostility.
Antlered deer possess many glands that allow them to produce scents, some of which are so potent they can be detected by the human nose. Three major glands are the orbital, tarsal and metatarsal glands. Orbital glands are found on the head, and scent is deposited from them by rubbing the head, often the area around the eyes, on hanging twigs. The tarsal glands are found on the lower outside of each hind leg. Scent is deposited from these glands when deer walk through and rub against vegetation. The metatarsal glands, found on the inside “knee” of each hind leg, are the most potent.
During the first year the pedicles appear on the young deer’s forehead. The following year, the youngster sprouts straight, spike- like shafts, and in the third year, the first branch appears. In successive years, as the deer matures, his antlers lengthen and, in most species, he acquires additional branches. One can actually determine the age of the deer from the number of branches on his antlers, as their number increases with age.
