8-Light Chandelier with Pendants in Bronze and Crystal, Amber Glass Drops, circa 1900

A superb 8-light chandelier in bronze and crystal, animated by a shower of large drops in blown amber glass, bringing warm presence and brilliance. The central shaft is composed of cut-crystal elements typical of late 19th to early 20th-century French production. The bronze mount displays fine Rocaille movements, without excess, evoking the transition between Louis XV style and 1900s productions. The chandelier is hung with fine-quality cut-crystal pendants and terminates in a faceted ball. Electrical work entirely redone to CE standards. French work, circa 1900.
