Crafted with remarkable quality, its sculptural form features a gracefully curved brass frame suspended by woven strings, accommodating five light sources with conical lampshades. The chandelier looks also beautiful when used without the lampshades. In very good condition with fully functional original wiring, while the brass hardware displays a unique patina which has only grown more beautiful over time. Accompanied by refurbished off-white beige silk lampshades in the original measurements. Upon request we offer complimentary rewiring of the chandelier to meet the standards of your country, as well as the flexibility to adjust the drop height, currently at 38 inches, to your desired preference.
