18th Century Cage Wall Lamp with 2 Lights in Nickel Bronze and Crystal

About the Item

This wall lamp is a variation of the fashion of the half-lights of the XVIIIth century. Between the chandelier and the arm of light, these atypical lights were very appreciated by Marie Antoinette who ordered them in 1786 for her boudoir in the Fontainebleau castle. This model takes the shape of a violin from the chandelier of the Pope's apartments in the Château de Fontainebleau. Its originality also lies in the play of transparency offered by its ornaments, rock crystal pendants in the form of a drop supported by small bronze arms, and two daggers that form a pyramid with the two arms of light. These arms, which rise from the lower floor, are composed of a crystal cup and a chiseled wick. It should also be noted that the two dagger-shaped crystal pendants can be found in the series of thirteen candelabras dating from 1862 in the Louvre Museum. We have one pair in stock however we can produce them made to measure and in other finishes such as 18k gold, 24k gold, silver, nickel, black nickel (our any bespoke finish). Our Company may also customize sizes or make any modifications on original design.
