The chandelier was created in the 19th century by joining two large wall sconces from the Baroque period; they are made of wrought iron, worked sheet iron and wooden parts, imitating floral branches, all gilded. From two large wrought-iron volutes, various branches branch out from which, thanks to rivets, large sheet-metal acanthus leaves are grafted. The flowers are composed of laminated iron petals whose hearts are made of wood and inserted into the pistil; two flowers, facing each othe,r act as candle holders, now electrified. Joined in the 19th century to form a single chandelier, interlocking irons were added, ending in a tuft of gold leaf where the chandelier hangs from the ceiling.
