Item description

Empire-style bronze and crystal chandelier, late 19th - early 20th century. An imposing-looking chandelier with precious bronze castings, which, combined with the long wires composed of crystal spheres, create a harmonious and solemn figure capable of embellishing any room. It comes from an old palace in Turin and was made between the late 19th century and the early 20th century, in the years of the Belle Époque. The sturdy structure is composed of rich castings of well-chiseled bronze with ornamental motifs depicting laurel wreaths inspired by the Louis XVI and Empire periods. It is surmounted at the top by a bronze crown with blue decorations, from which descend long chains formed by bronze friezes and rows of crystal balls. The central part has been embellished with elegant chiseled bronze friezes and the arms made of rich solid bronze work that support the original antique candles of the period, composed of a central wooden core and covered with opaline glass. The chandelier has been completely disassembled, cleaned and restored, the metal has been freed of oxide, the crystals have been removed and cleaned, many have been replaced because they were damaged, and the electrical system has been redone from new (in the final two photos you can see the chandelier before restoration). Very bright chandelier with a total of fifteen lights (six outside and nine inside candles), also works with LED bulbs.
