About the Item

Antique mid-19th-century French Empire-style gilt linden wood chandelier featuring three winged female figures, an olive-green painted bowl, and an ornate crown canopy. Recently rewired with new E14 sockets. Elegant neoclassical design, rich gilding, and charming patina. A refined French Empire-style chandelier, hand-carved from linden wood and richly finished in gold leaf. The circular bowl is painted in a muted olive green and adorned with three finely modelled winged female figures, each serving as a candle arm. These are now fitted with three new E14-size light sockets and candle sleeves, compatible with modern bulbs. The bowl is further embellished with scrolling acanthus details and a carved pinecone finial, and it suspends from a decorative crown-shaped canopy via three linked chains. This piece displays an elegant neoclassical silhouette, emblematic of the Empire style, with its classical figures, symmetry, and rich gilding. Dimensions: • Diameter: 34 cm (13.4 in.) • Height: approx. 58 cm (22.8 in.) Condition: In good condition with typical signs of age and use. The gilded surfaces exhibit a gentle patina appropriate for the chandelier's age.

Recently rewired with new sockets and candle sleeves. Period: Mid-19th Century Materials: Gilt linden wood, painted wood, metal chains A distinctive and sculptural chandelier, ideal for making a statement in both traditional and eclectic interiors.
