Louis XVI Bronze d’Ore Chandelier with Scroll Motif, French Mid-19th Century

About the Item

This French antique Louis XVI chandelier features bronze d'ore (gold plated bronze) and a unique scroll motif. The piece dates back to the Mid-19th century and was hand crafted before the era of industrialization. The piece sports candle cups on elongated spear arms. The design offers a classically timeless shape with scrolling elements attaching to the base. Note the details on the spiraling arms, the patterned cups, and the finial at bottom, all working together to showcase a fine sense of Mid-19th century artistry. The fixture plays host to eight-lights interspersed between three different heights. This hierarchical nature combines with the whimsical shape and scroll motif to produce a compact fixture that brings a delicate sense of movement to any space in which it finds itself. The piece is part of the collection from The French Antique Shop, a fourth generation antique store in the heart of the French Quarter of New Orleans. A space that was created and curated at first by Marie and Marcelle and Granet. Their first shop was located in the heart of Paris, and opened in 1919 after they migrated to Paris from Romania post World War I. Shortly after establishing themselves in Paris, as a Jewish family they were forced to flee in the late 1930s before World War II. Marie and Marcel opened up their shop in New Orleans in 1939, the city in which this antique collection has grown and continues to flourish. The store is now run by the third and fourth generation, Marc, Michael, and Brian Friedlander, and is a highly curated space filled with rare antiquities, fine antique lighting, eclectic fixtures, and everything in between. We have imported all the antique items in our collection directly from France.
