Late 19th Century Victorian Neoclassical Bronze Eight Light Chandelier

About the Item

This exquisite late 19th-century chandelier masterfully blends Victorian and Neoclassical aesthetics, crafted in bronze with eight captivating lights. The etched glass shades are artistically designed, with four resembling bellflowers and four evoking torch flames, creating an alternating pattern throughout the fixture. Every aspect of the chandelier highlights Neoclassical iconography, from the central column adorned with classical Greek dancers playing Kallisthenia cymbals to the arms featuring columnar detailing, classical vases, and elegant foliate scrolls. The top is beautifully shaped with bunches of acanthus leaves. Neoclassicism draws inspiration from the classical grandeur of ancient Greece and Rome. The Victorian Neoclassical style greatly influenced the art and culture of the era, creating a rich visual language. This stunning chandelier will make an impressive statement in any space.
