French 19th Century Louis XVI Baccarat Crystal and Bronze d’Ore Chandelier
Item Number: 6785
This classic Louis XVI chandelier features finely chiseled bronze d’ore and is draped in Baccarat crystal. The French antique piece dates back to the 19th century and plays host to an elaborate center embellished with acanthus leaves and a nature motif. This design is mirrored in the arms, which lead to fluted d’ore drippers, and beaded garlands on the candle cups and bobeches. The piece is draped with ropes of Baccarat crystal including octagonal beads and plaquettes in various shapes and sizes, as well as solid crystal balls with a gorgeous lapidary cut. Finally, the piece concludes with a large solid crystal finial, also with the aforementioned lapidary cut, at bottom. The fixture exudes elegance and grace, timelessness and balance, and is charged to bring a stately French element to any room.
