Fine Antique Gilt Bronze & Crystal 18-light Chandelier
An elegant and highly decorative antique gilt bronze chandelier of exceptional quality, richly adorned with an abundance of cut-glass crystal drops and finely cast detailing throughout.
The chandelier features 18 gracefully scrolling arms arranged over two tiers, each supporting candle-style sconces with shaped glass drip pans. The central stem rises through a beautifully modelled framework of acanthus and foliate motifs, culminating in a decorative crown from which further faceted crystal pendants are suspended.
The piece is dressed throughout with a superb array of hand-cut crystal droplets, including large faceted pear-shaped pendants and smaller button drops, all of which catch and refract the light beautifully, creating a striking and luxurious sparkle when illuminated.
The warm gilt bronze frame contrasts elegantly with the brilliance of the crystal, making this chandelier an ideal statement piece for both traditional period interiors and refined contemporary settings.
Presented in very good antique condition, with light age-related wear consistent with use. The chandelier is ready for installation (rewiring may be advised to suit modern standards).
A timeless and sophisticated lighting piece, perfect for collectors, interior designers, and those seeking an authentic antique chandelier to elevate a space.
