French 19th Century Louis XVI Bronze Chandelier

This Louis XVI chandelier is made of beautiful bronze and features details in plenty. The French antique piece dates back to the late 19th century and provides the viewer with a gorgeous center stem. Notice the acanthus leaf crown at top, the foliage work providing movement and balance as the eye moves towards the center. The six scrolling arms extend from a center cluster of acanthus leaves, themselves also adorned with an acanthus leaf motif. Finally, simple bronze candle cups accompany patterned bronze bobeches to play host to the six lights.
