About the Item
This impressive early 20th-century chandelier is a masterpiece of Empire revival design and a true symbol of grandeur. Expertly crafted in gilded bronze and cut crystal, it brings together monumental presence and refined neoclassical detail.
At the center, a magnificent spherical crystal globe catches the eye. Frosted and engraved with intricate starburst and cross-hatched patterns, it radiates elegance whether lit or unlit. Encircling the globe is a gilt bronze garland frieze, a detail that adds richness and depth to the design. From this core extend eight arms, each fitted with a finely etched frosted glass shade that glows with soft, atmospheric light.
Above this monumental form stands a striking gilded bronze eagle with wings outstretched, poised in majestic strength. In the Empire tradition, the eagle represents power and authority, recalling the grandeur of Napoleonic France. For American collectors, it holds additional resonance as the proud national symbol of the United States — making this chandelier a piece that bridges European neoclassical heritage with American identity.
Further enriched with acanthus leaves, floral garlands, and an ornate finial, this chandelier embodies the highest level of Empire revival craftsmanship. The interplay of glowing cut crystal and shimmering gilded bronze creates a dramatic effect, making this chandelier equally at home in grand neoclassical interiors or glamorous Hollywood Regency-inspired spaces.
Both on and off, this chandelier brings atmosphere, presence, and dignity to any room. It is not just a source of light, but a work of art with meaning and history.
This chandelier is in excellent condition, with light wear consistent with age and use. It has been professionally electrified with 8 x E27 sockets and is ready for immediate installation.
