About the Item
An elegant and extremely high quality French early 19th century 1st Empire period crystal and ormolu chandelier, circa 1805.

The pierced central tier displays most decorative scrolled Rinceau designs and lovely triangular patterns with additional prism shaped crystal pendants and impressive richly chased tied berried laurel wreaths with an exquisite central cut crystal reserve. The elegantly curved arms each display spiral fluted designs and most decorative flared candle cups. Fine diamond shaped ormolu chains and beautiful swaging crystal garlands lead upwards to the striking top crown with impressive pierced palmettes and additional lovely crystal pendants.
