Item description

This chandelier has the classic balloon shape typical of the Louis XVI style; the strands of crystals of different shapes, manually joined together, are distributed and hung on a structure that resembles the shape of a basket (hence the French name sac-à-perle); the central band is in gilded brass and is enriched with laurel branch decorations; four curvilinear arms, also in gilded brass, applied to the external part of the structure, have at their ends the points of light, made up of crystal bobeches that support fake candles; from the lower part hangs a group of massive crystals in the shape of an arrow; inside the upper part of the chandelier there is a string of crystals at the end of which hangs a crystal ball. The chandelier was created entirely by hand by a craftsman between 1870 and 1890 near Paris.
