Offered is this exceptional and elegant French Empire chandelier with 8 lights, dating from around 1970.
The chandelier is made of solid brass and has an impressive weight of approx. 16 kg (35 lbs), reflecting its high-quality craftsmanship. The combination of golden bronze finish and original black lacquered elements creates the distinctive and sophisticated look typical of the Empire style.
