We ourselves have wired it to hold lightbulbs. The crystal arms, swirls, center breaks, and bobesches are all original to this piece, as well as some of the prisms, but some of the prisms (while all vintage baccarat) were added by us later on to fill in missing spots. The round crystal ball on the bottom has been added later as well. Aside from a few chips on the bottom of some of the spire prisms (pictured) the crystal on this chandelier is in near immaculate condition. The prisms on it are of the highest quality and throw off incredible rainbows when light shines through them. The 5 sockets, which are brand new along with the wire, are covered in white Polybeeswax candle covers. Included with the chandelier is the canopy, crossbar and loop and length of chain needed by you for installation (please contact us with your specifications upon ordering). It is 32 inches tall from the top of the chandelier to the bottom of the crystal bar and 22 inches wide at its widest point. It weighs 20 pounds.

Please keep in mind that the best way to ship this piece is by disassembling the arms from the stem wire in the center, and wrapping each crystal piece individually, so please be sure that you are familiar with wiring a chandelier, or you are able to hire someone who is, to reassemble it upon arrival.
