French Early 20th Century Detailed Bronze Gasolier
Item Number: 241x
This French Louis XVI gasolier is made of hand cast bronze, and dates back to the early 20th century. Gasolier simply means the piece was originally gas burning, and has since been converted to electricity. The piece features details in plenty; note the ribbon crown, the three twisted support rods with knotted elements, the acanthus leaves outreaching from the fluted arms, joined by a grape motif on the scrolling elements. The center ring offers beauty most notably through the added ribbon work accompanying the lion heads. Below rests a finial detailed acorn finial, and lastly floral glass globes surround each of the three lights forming the stamen.
