Value of 1960's Capiz Chandelier?

By Cadenbrooke, 9 February, 2015
Description

Wondering if any one can give me a value on this 1960's Capiz chandelier?  I've looked everywhere online and can't find anything similiar.  This one has champagne coloured octagon shaped capiz shells rimmed in gold paint/metal, and is 36" long and 18" wide.  It has hundreds of shells (none missing or cracked).  It has 2 lights and both work fine.

The only similiar ones I can find online are white and have round or rectangular shells and none have a rim of gold or anything else.

The closest thing I've found is on 1stdibs and it's smaller, and they are asking $11,500.00!!

Fingers crossed this one is worth that much, but I won't hold my breath... lol...

Really, just want to know what a fair price to ask for it is...

Thank you!
