Napoleon III Chandelier in Gilded Bronze France Third Quarter 19th Century

About the Item

Napoleon III chandelier with eighteen lights arranged in double order, France third quarter 19th century. Gilded bronze structure, distinguished in the central shaft by the presence of green glazed ceramic parts; the gilded bronze is characterized by the alternation of luminized and opaque portions, thus creating reflections that amplify its luminosity. At the decorative level, eclecticism dominates, finding both elements of clear Rococo taste, especially in the wavy structure composed of curls, leaf volutes, and ornamental motifs with a calligraphic character, and elements derived from the classical world, such as floral festoons, rosettes, capitals, and masks. At the apex, set on a bed of sloping leaves, a pineapple. Beveled crystal bobeches, one of which has been replaced and others with breaks. Presents deficiencies in the gilding.
