Description :
This refined late 19th century chandelier is crafted in finely cast gilt bronze and richly ornamented with cut crystal elements. The elegant structure features eight gracefully scrolling arms radiating from a sculptural central stem, each arm supporting a candle-style light. The bronze is finely worked with classical foliage and flowing lines, typical of high-quality European lighting from the late 1800s.
The chandelier is adorned with an abundant and harmonious arrangement of hand-cut crystal drops, including large faceted pear-shaped pendants, elongated spear drops, and octagonal crystal beads. These elements are suspended in elegant tiers beneath the arms and central body, creating a lively play of light and reflection when illuminated. Each light is topped with a finely cut crystal bobeche, enhancing both balance and visual refinement.
The gilt bronze retains a beautiful, warm patina, contributing to the chandelier’s authentic character and decorative appeal. The overall composition is well-proportioned and visually rich without being overly ornate, making it suitable for both classical interiors and more contemporary settings seeking a statement antique lighting piece.
Suspended from its decorative chain and original-style canopy, this chandelier offers strong presence and timeless elegance, embodying the craftsmanship and decorative sophistication of the late 19th century.
Dimensions : Ø 68 cm x H 55 cm (107 cm with the chain)
