"Chandelier 15 Lights In Gilt Bronze And Crystals."
Cage-shaped, this large bronze chandelier is adorned with a rich ornamentation of crystals. Around a very pretty central column in cut crystal with different patterns, are fixed, stepped on two levels, the lights. Fifteen in number, they form a first row of nine arms, alternated with three large and wide daggers, then an upper row of six arms among which are three daggers, thinner, with six faces. The whole is embellished with cut pears, half smooth pears, rosettes and faceted pearl chains. At amortization, a blown glass ball completes the set. This Chandelier has been completely disassembled, reassembled, re-gilded and re-electrified as new. It has sockets sheathed with fake candles covered with real wax, so the illusion is perfect. Period second half of the 19th century. Height 120 cm, width 64 cm.
