Description

This is a splendid antique five-light Louis XVI chandelier, c. 1900-1910, made of cast bronze with gilded accents. The chandelier begins with a beautifully cast, gilded canopy with striking volute detail; it comes down in a chain to a bronze loop finial, which supports a pole entwined with gilded vines and flowers. Below, five squared chandelier arms emerge from acanthus clusters to support scalloped bobeches hung with icicle prisms. The chandelier finishes in a splendid cast bronze gadrooned baluster with foliate accents. This light fixture is in excellent condition; it has been professionally rewired and comes with all the necessary attachments for modern installation. The chandelier body measures 18 ½” wide and 25 ¼” tall, and the fixture is 42 ¾” long overall.
