Looks like that to me too.  Just looks homemade versus commercially produced.

Cogar,, enlarge the second pic and look at the edge of the circle !!  See what you think !!  Looks like plywood to me !!

Mart, if that "lid" or "cover" of the internal wiring "connections" is not a disc of thin metal ...... then it has been "replaced" by an owner of said "hanging lamp".

Now I say that because it is my learned opinion, based on what I see in the above photos, .... it is an art-deco style "hanging lamp" that was produced in a shop or factory and constructed totally out of metal ...... except for the light bulbs and the insulation on the "AC" lamp cord & plug.

I can see dirt and shadows on that "cover", both pictures, but nothing else out of the ordinary,

Cogar, you are right about what you say about the metal used. I have many chandeliers, but this one may have been taken apart. You're right too that more photos are needed. I also would like to ask about that portion of the chandelier.

I’m guessing that if or when we see a picture of the underneath side that the bottom of the center portion will oval or rounded and made like and of the same metal as the reflectors ….. with a “decorative” screw-cap affixing it to the center-pipe. ;) ;)

Sorry for the long wait, Better late, then never? ::)

Looks homemade.  It is non-magnetic, painted metal.  The top is the same metal as the rest.

Ahhh,, finally back !!  If this is commercially made,, it was cheaply done !!  Probably sheet brass !!  Wondering if this was someones answer to the 60`s disco balls if colored lights were added !!
