Designed in the classic European sac-à-perles (bag of pearls) style, this fixture is an exquisite study in texture, geometry, and light refraction.
The chandelier is anchored by a thick, heavy-gauge brass rim crown featuring an intricately embossed, continuous band of low-relief classical floral garlands and scrolling motifs. Suspended immediately below the brass collar is a prominent row of large, chunky octagonal crystals, followed by a striking band of thick, flat, faceted rectangular crystal plates that provide a structural, modern-leaning geometry to the piece. Finishing the design is a tightly woven, cascading bowl of brilliant octagonal crystal bead swags that taper down to a central point, fully concealing the inner light source while maximizing ambient shimmer.
With its warm aged-brass hardware and substantial, multi-layered crystal presentation, this statement piece adds immediate luxury to a dining room, formal entryway, primary bedroom, or formal living space. It is a stunning match for French Provincial, Traditional, Hollywood Regency, and Neo-Classical interior styles. The chandelier has three Edison sockets that can use either Led lightbulbs or incandescent bulbs with 75W each . #620 See less
