The sculptural frame is composed of sweeping wrought-iron arms finished in silver leaf, creating a graceful open cage-like silhouette with fluid, curving lines. Six candle-style lights extend around the lower body, each balanced by cascading rock crystal elements that lend the fixture a luminous, jewel-like presence.
The chandelier is richly decorated with faceted and polished rock crystal drops in varied forms, including elongated teardrops, irregular naturalistic pendants, and rounded elements. These crystals are suspended throughout the frame from delicate chains and metal fittings, catching and refracting the light from multiple angles.
