French Mid 20th Century Crystal Chandelier

This French crystal chandelier dates back to the mid 20th century and offers a unique design. At top we see a crown of scrolling crystal. Moving down the central stem we meet a beautiful and simply patterned crystal bowl from which the six crystal arms emerge. These arms, like the crystal at top, offer a ribbed design which gives the crystal depth as well as a plethora of angles from which light refracts and dances off of. The six arms end in crystal bobeches, which rest on bronze plates. Finally, the bobeches are embellished with octagonal crystal and crystal spears, a pattern mirrored by the crystal bowl at center.
