About the Item
Antique French Louis XVI style bronze chandelier is a spectacular design, inspired by ancient Greek and Roman architecture!

Cascading down from the bow are cast chain segments connected to each upturned arm below, which are fitted with matching laurel bobeches and candlestick holders. Exquisite foliate and acanthus leaf flourishes are abundant surrounding the central shaft, and below where the arms are affixed appear beautiful angel's faces, flanked by floral garlands and affixed to the central shaft cast to depict a carquois de fleche, symbol of the power of the French monarchy for centuries!
