This refined antique crystal chandelier is an outstanding example of classical craftsmanship and elegance. The chandelier is executed with high-quality lead crystal, arranged in a beautifully balanced, slender form that creates a luxurious and timeless presence.

What truly distinguishes this piece is its patinated bronze frame — a rare and highly desirable feature that elevates the chandelier well above standard brass examples. The frame is richly decorated with classical detailing and original crystal-set elements, harmoniously combined with cascading crystal strands, faceted prisms and elongated drops.

The chandelier has been fully inspected, professionally cleaned and carefully restored where necessary, and is offered in excellent condition. All elements are complete and original, and the chandelier is fully functional.

When illuminated, the heavy lead crystal produces a spectacular light refraction, creating a warm, atmospheric glow and refined sparkle.
