French Vintage Iron Chandelier

Dimensions: 28” H x 17 ½” W x 17 ½” D

A dazzling French gilt bronze and crystal chandelier from the mid-20th century to illuminate your dining room, foyer, or other glamorous space. This Maison Baguès style frame has true depth and sculptural interest from a hammered, or chiseled, texture beneath the gilding that has aged to patchy craquelure and areas of dark patina. It is mounted to the ceiling by a large canopy of giltwood, carved in a stylized sun or sunflower design bursting into spiky corona. The multitude of tiers and scrolled hooks are dripping with a variety of glass shapes: pendalogues, stars, chains, and a crystal ball to catch the light from six faux candles using candelabra-base bulbs. Take comfort knowing this fixture has been professionally cleaned and rewired for US electrical using UL-listed parts and is ready to be hung in your interior. One of the hooks at the very top tier is missing its star and pendalogue; be sure to view all the detailed images as they are an essential part of the description.

6’ wire

Dimensions: 34 ¼” H x 19 ¾” W x 19 ¾” D

This French 19th century slender chandelier is made of gilt bronze and accented with dainty foliate and Neoclassical motifs in lieu of crystals. The elongated fixture incorporates a crown of plumes from which the column descends, cast with a slightly ruched texture to mimic the folds of a silk chandelier chain cover. Draped from the crown to the arms are chains strung with alternating acanthus and beads, repeated underneath the three arms which branch into six lights (for candelabra-base bulbs). From there the chandelier column tapers into a thin spike decorated with an artichoke finial at the point. Note the fixture has been professionally cleaned and rewired to US electrical standards using UL-listed parts and is ready to be installed in your interior. Please view the detailed images to see every gorgeous feature of this unique chandelier.

A showstopping, massive 19th century French rock crystal and amethyst chandelier illuminated by sixteen (16) lights to make a statement in your dining room, foyer, or other glamorous setting. This extraordinary fixture has a multi-tiered dark bronze frame that glitters with a variety of hand-carved shapes: polished teardrops, faceted kites, rosettes, and brilliant crystal chains to reflect any ambient light. Interspersed among the clear crystals are lavender drops of semiprecious amethyst. Note the dense tassel that crowns the top in braided and bullion fringe! This magnificent chandelier has been professionally rewired for US electrical using UL listed parts and is ready to be hung in your interior.

3’ Chain, 5 ¼” Canopy

Dimensions: 30” H x 32” W x 32” D

A spectacular and heavy French chandelier from the late 19th century, cast in bronze with abundant Neoclassical decorative motifs imparting texture and variety to the six-light form. The scale and grandeur would indicate this fixture was likely designed for a lobby or similar environment where the quality of light is equally important as affecting a sense of wonder and amazement. Swirled, blown glass diffusers protect candelabra-base bulbs rising from gently curved arms draped with acanthus leaf designs. From below one sees acanthus leaves in a radial formation around the bottom finial. Professionally cleaned and rewired for US electrical using UL-listed parts, ready to hang in your interior. Please view the detailed images to see the current condition.
