This French Napoleon III chandelier is cast in bronze, and dates back to the 19th century. The piece most notably features a center urn embellished beautifully with female herms. Following the fixture downward, we find six arms adorned with acanthus leaves, they extend outward to bronze drippers and detailed bobeches. At center, the arms end in bunches of grapes, a detail which is mirrored gracefully in the finial at bottom.
