Late 20th Century French Louis XVI-Style Black Thread & Gold Chandelier (1 Piece)
A captivating fusion of neoclassical romance and bold contemporary flair, this late 20th-century French Louis XVI–style chandelier offers a rare and dramatic interpretation of traditional lighting design.

Its elegant candle-style arms, floral-inspired ornamentation, and shimmering gold accents evoke the grandeur of 18th-century French palaces—while the modern black detailing introduces a sophisticated edge that harmonizes beautifully with both classic and modern interiors.
