The chandelier is made of gilded bronze, which gives it the shine and nobility that is characteristic of this famous workshop in paris. Material and finish: the chandelier is made of gilded bronze, which gives it a luxurious look while ensuring its durability and longevity. Design and ornaments: the chandelier is made in the rococo style. The center of the chandelier is formed by a robust central column, from which six double elegantly twisted arms emerge. Each arm is richly decorated with floral and leaf motifs, which underlines the artistic and detailed approach to the workmanship. The ornamental details include finely shaped flowers and leaves, which give the chandelier a rich and sophisticated look. Lighting elements: the chandelier carries a total of twelve candle bulbs with an e14 base up to 40w (normal, halogen and led bulbs are suitable), which are evenly distributed around the circumference. The bulbs are placed in candle-like sockets, which adds a traditional and classic touch. The bulbs are equipped with imitations of dripping wax, which contributes to the authentic look. Suspension and assembly: the chandelier is suspended on a sturdy chain, which allows it to be securely attached to the ceiling. The chain is also gold-plated and complements the overall aesthetic impression. The height of the chain can be adjusted upon request. The minimum height is 64 cm and the maximum as needed (easily 5 meters). Use: this chandelier is ideal for representative spaces such as salons, dining rooms or historic interiors, where its beauty and detailed design can fully stand out. Its light gives the space a warm and pleasant touch, while its design brings a sense of luxury and elegance. Condition: fully functional, the electrical installation is already in copper, a new old-style power cable with fabric braid also in gold (three-wire with grounding).
