This very large Gilt Bronze Chandelier with
Statue Bronze Figures originally held wax candles
and was electrified in the 20s. We have rewired it.
The Figures are of 5 Winged Victory Angels blowing
horns. The figural detail on these statues is of the
highest artistic quality. This fixture is composed almost
entirely of Cast Bronze foliate detail. The classical detail
candle cups and bobeches have been modified to hold
electrical sockets. You can use up to 60 watt bulbs in
all 15 sockets. This Chandelier weighs 130 lbs. and will
have to be fastened to the ceiling in a very secure manner.
This Chandelier would make a wonderful Great Room
Fixture. It could work in many environments because it is
more like a sculpture than other Chandeliers. A contemporary
environment, a classical room with details from c. 1780 - 1820,
and a Victorian home would be a very nice placement for this
Light.
