An impressive and highly decorative French chandelier from around 1970, featuring an extraordinary sculptural fairy figure forming the central column.
Crafted from solid brass, this chandelier is robust and substantial, weighing approximately 17 kg – a true statement piece with remarkable presence.
From the strong entablature extend six richly ornamented arms, branching into a total of 12 lights.
The highlight of this chandelier is the opulently designed bronze-colored fairy figure serving as the supporting central column – expressive and rare in this size.
Each of the 12 star-shaped drip pans is adorned with six small crystal prisms. The arms are further decorated with long, elegant crystal drops.
Altogether, the chandelier features approximately 90 crystal pendants, shimmering subtly in beautiful rainbow colors.
The entire crystal decoration is complete and free of damage.
The chandelier as well as the electrical wiring are in good condition.
