About the Item

Elegant pair of nine-light chandeliers, with refined details and gilded bronze chains. The band features palmettes, a typical feature of the First Empire era, while the floral decorations, enriched with cornucopias and anthropomorphic figures, give a further touch of elegance. In the lower part, under the band, the chandeliers are adorned with almond-shaped crystals and a cup turned in Volterra alabaster. Additional lamps were inserted inside the cup at a later time, which increase the overall brightness. Below the lights, the hanging crystals offer a further touch of refinement. Finally, the upper part is decorated with bronze floral motifs and a pine cone, also present as the termination of the chandelier. This is an extremely elegant pair of chandeliers, capable of enriching any environment with taste and refinement. Tuscan manufacture, from the Napoleon III period, to be ascribed to around the mid-19th century. Dimensions: H x DM 110 x 94cm
