Rare model in this invoice with bronzes with double brown and golden patina, with beautiful carvings.
Several details underline the elegance of this chandelier: the ceiling light decorated with a finely chiselled crown of crosses from which emerge three heads of chimeras; the flame emerging from the center of the oil lamp; the generous crown of water leaves and acanthus leaves decorating the lower part of the chandelier, and finally, the pine cone closing the lower part.
