13-Arm Torchère in Chiseled Brass and Black Crystal

About the Item

This exquisite torchère is a magnificent example of a high-end lighting fixture, masterfully crafted in the distinguished Neoclassical or Empire style. It showcases a striking combination of richly chiseled brass, meticulously plated with 24-carat gold, and precisely cut black crystal elements. The piece stands on a substantial, elegantly detailed tripod base, finished in lustrous gold and adorned with classical motifs such as wreaths and scrolls, lending it an imposing and regal presence. A central, fluted column rises from the base, featuring alternating sections of polished black crystal and gilded brass, adding depth and visual interest to its stately form. The upper section branches into thirteen gracefully curved arms, each terminating in a finely crafted holder with an elegant, clear glass shade designed to enhance the luminous brilliance of the light sources. The intricate scrollwork on the arms further accentuates the piece's opulent aesthetic. This exceptional torchère is a testament to classical elegance and expert artistry, promising to bring timeless sophistication and a resplendent glow to any prestigious interior, such as a grand salon, a formal dining room, or a stately entrance hall.
