Grand French 19th Century Empire Bronze d’Ore and Crystal Chandelier

About the Item

This classic Empire style bronze d’ore chandelier is draped with ropes of octagon cut crystals and dates back to the 19th century. The French antique piece offers 18 lights and a crown of reticulated acanthus leaves which sport gorgeous oval cut crystals. The ropes of octagon crystals lead us to the two larger rings below, the first of which holds its lights upon palmette flowers, the second of which features gorgeous bronze d’ore winged allegorical figures below the bronze d’ore candle cups and bobeches. At bottom a bowl shaped collection of octagon cut crystals brings us to a bronze d’ore ring set with large pear-shaped cut crystal teardrops in the lapidary fashion. Uniquely, the chandelier is similar in design to the three large chandeliers that hang in the East Room of the White House. Each piece in our shop is professionally rewired and in working order. They have been rewired at our fourth generation antique store in The French Quarter of New Orleans. Each chandelier and lantern comes with a vintage canopy, three feet of chain, and ample wire, and each sconce comes with all materials needed to mount. Each piece is newly wired with UL approved wire and sockets and is fully operable. This piece is a collection of a fourth generation, family owned business in New Orleans called The French Antique Shop. The store was first opened by Marie and Marcel Granet in Paris when they married in 1927. A jewish family, they came to the United States before the outbreak of the Second World War, leaving on the last boat out of Paris' port, Le Havre. When they reached New Orleans, they fell in love with the Vieux Carre as it reminded them of home. Their first shop here in New Orleans was located on Chartres Street in the French Quarter and was stocked originally with pieces they had brought with them from Paris. They moved to Royal Street and settled in their present expanded location at 225 Royal Street in 1947. Today, the shop is run by the third and fourth generation, Marc, and his two sons Michael and Brian. By purchasing from our shop, you're supporting a family run business which focuses on artisan made, high quality craft with an emphasis on quality. Thank you for helping us continue a dream started four generations ago!
