Antique French Bronze Flying Cherub Pendant Light with Original Frosted Flower Glass Shades, circa 1900
This remarkable French pendant light dates from approximately 1900–1915 and is an outstanding example of the elegance of the Belle Époque period.
The centerpiece is a beautifully sculptured solid bronze flying cherub (Putto) gracefully carrying two suspended flower-shaped lamps. The dynamic composition creates a sense of movement and lightness rarely found in antique lighting.
The original satin frosted flower glass shades produce a soft, warm illumination, while the decorative bronze galleries and richly ornamented chain emphasize the exceptional craftsmanship of this rare fixture.
Because of its elegant proportions, the pendant is perfectly suited for an entrance hall, bedroom, staircase, powder room or as an eye-catching decorative feature in both classic and contemporary interiors.
