new living room ceilng fan

[derek anthony]

it is a craftmade 42 inch ceiling fan that I found at habitat, in antique brass and I think the model name is decorative, the fan cost me nine bucks, and it can accept either four or five blades, the light did not come with it, I bought it at lowes,

[fancollector12]

Nice find! Though the Decorative normally comes with Casablanca-style brackets or pretzel brackets. Are those blades and brackets original? I like it, it looks so good!

[derek anthony]

I think they may be original, they came with the fan when I bought it

Looks good,, I like the Christmas lights also..

mom has that very same star tree topper,love that craftmade fan,i have the same thoughts as vincent about the blade arms details,very nice finds indeed,i wish you put up a casablanca fan(least a 1980s or 90s since they are better imo.

I would like to put up a casablanca four seasons with 42 inch blades, but they are hard to find here

[derek anthony]

By the way the model of it is fc 3142 and it is made in taiwan also it has the older craftmade logo

If you use the 16" blades that were optional for the four seasons back when it was sold, then that would give a 38" blade span. If you use a newer set of Casablanca's blades (17" pointed, square or rounded tip), then that would give a 40" blade span. You could go on eBay or Amazon and buy a set of new old stock 17" blades and use them on your four seasons. Here is a set I found:

Early 1981 four seasons, K55, slumber quiet. Jeremy actually posted a link to this fan in a different thread, but whatever...

Provided the owner will ship the fan, if you are going to purchase the aforementioned items, you would be spending $35 for the motor and everything, and $10 for the blades I linked, since the blades that come with the fan are painted black, chipped, and 21" in length, and you are not looking to install a 48" fan in your living room from what you already told me.

Looks better this way

[colts18to88]

I'm almost always biased towards four bladed fans since almost all of the best vintage fans are four blades. Plus, virtually all of the new fans sold today have five blades, so I think it's best for vintage fans to still stand out with four blades if possible.

Looks nice!

Nice fan and I like the light kit on them as well. what year was that fan made?
