French 19th Century Louis XIV Bronze d’Ore Chandelier

Item Number: 3005b

This French Louis XIV bronze d’ore chandelier is richly detailed and features a finely chiseled shell motif at the center. Notice the movement and definition from the crown, through the center stem, as we venture toward the arms. The arms are heavily detailed in themselves as they each embody an outreaching acanthus leaf to hold the candle at their end. Rounding this 19th century piece off is an acorn finial and dart and egg pattern at the bottom.

They feature delicately detailed bronze d’ore candle cups, drippers, and bobeches. Finally, the magnificent piece is bookended at bottom with a bunch of grapes as a finial.
