In this sale a wonderful rare 19th century french Louis XV cage chandelier in original condition coming from a castle in our region, la vallée de la Loire.
The design is really a work of art, a catch eye, and the quality is on the top of the chandeliers I had during the last 30 years.
Large and heavy, the bronze frame is covered with hundreds clear crystals and many blue Murano drops with clear deep color. The Murano drops have different sizes and the blue color is more intense in the center of the chandelier than on periphery. As you can see in my hand, the center down ball is very large and heavy because full inside, of course hand cut the design is very rare with curved facets.
