Abstract
A chandelier frame provides, in one embodiment, a first frame member and a second frame member that are connected by a plurality of arms at joints. The joints are plastically and asymmetrically deformed to locate each of the frame members in axially remote planes. In another embodiment, this invention provides a first and second frame member having arms therebetween that are rotated from a first plane defined by the frame members into a second plane that is substantially transverse to the first plane. The arms are joined to a locking structure that enables the first and second frame members to be maintained in an elastically deformed shape defining, in one preferred embodiment, a bowl-like shape. In another embodiment, a frame member is held in an elastically deformed, stressed state by an arm interconnected with interengaging locking structures on the arm. The spacing between arm locking structures is different from the spacing of interengaging a frame member locking structures to enable formation of the plastically deformed shape.
