About the Item

A beautifully detailed Empire-style chandelier made of gilt bronze. The chandelier features six gracefully scrolling arms adorned with classical motifs such as acanthus leaves, palmettes, and floral garlands. Suspended by decorative chains from a fluted central stem, it ends in a finely cast and chased lower finial. The chandelier retains a rich, warm golden tone with a lovely aged patina — possibly mercury fire gilded (ormolu). It has been newly rewired and fitted with candle-style bulb holders. A striking decorative piece that adds timeless elegance and character to any interior. Dimensions: 18.89 inches (diameter).31.49 inches (height) Condition: Very good vintage condition with minor wear consistent with age. Socket: 5 x e14 for standards screw bulbs.
