About the Item

Handcrafted and truly beautiful Gothic chandelier for candles. In antiques it often is the case that the older a piece is, the better the quality and the details. This pre 1900s, rare and highly decorative Gothic style chandelier is no exception to that. This fine Gothic specimen is as elaborate as one could hope and this marvelous bronze chandelier from the 1800s even comes with the original and equally rich, gilt bronze canopy. The chimeras, the gargoyles, the earth angels and the multiple leaf patterns are just some of the Gothic symbols that give deeper meaning to this work of religious art. Makers in this day and age are no longer prepared to first carve or sculpt all the individual and highly detailed elements of such a figural chandelier before having to cast them all in bronze. Never mind the polishing, the gilding, the hand-drilling of screwthreads and putting all the individual pieces together. It would nowadays make this meaningful and ornate work of lighting art way too expensive. The original and equally impressive, long chain and canopy are in excellent condition as well and together they make this majestic and practical to use chandelier an absolute joy to own and look at. It is made for twelve candles and in original condition, but we could also make the six cylindrical candle holders electrical for you and we will do so at no extra expense. This wonderful antique chandelier will look great both in your home or in a church or monastery. If you can afford a handcrafted antique like this then why settle for less. It is great value for money. Also, because perfect packing and worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 to 6 days are complimentary. Current height x diameter: 55 x 27.5 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish yet practical and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again). You can shop all our 1000+ listings by pushing the button that reads 'View All From Seller'.

Amazing Gothic Revival Bronze Chandelier with Flying Phoenix Firebird Sculptures
Located in Lisse, NL
Large and remarkable, phoenix arms, five-light chandelier with unique, stylish and multi-colored alabaster shades. This rare and stunning antique chandelier is made in France and it embodies everything that European craftsmanship stood for in the early 1900s. With all its ancient and less ancient châteaux, its many Gothic churches and with all the monasteries, France is the country where most of the European Gothic Revival art and antiques were created. This sizeable, Medieval style chandelier is very impressive for two very good reasons. First of all, the design is unlike anything you ever saw. The five large and flying phoenix sculptures with their detailed wings, their long necks, their fierce looking heads and their pointy-flame-tails truly make this chandelier a work of lighting art. Secondly, when you realize that this chandelier is entirely handcrafted and put together with bronze parts only then you get an idea of the workmanship that it took to create this work of art. To make it even more impressive and special, this antique bronze light fixture...
