The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A basket chandelier, also known as a sac-a-perles or bag light, features concentric rings or strands of crystal beads suspended from a upper frame that gather together at the base to form a bowl shape. Originating in the eighteenth century and widely produced throughout the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, this design conceals internal bulbs within an enclosed crystal envelope.

These ceiling fittings traditionally combine cast or chased brass and bronze galleries with hand-cut glass or lead crystal prisms and beads. The crystal elements are linked together using thin brass wiring attached to internal support rings.

Authentic period light fittings feature cast brass frames with chased detail, aged surface patination, and hand-linked wire connections between glass facets. Hand-cut glass drops display minor irregularities in cut angles compared to modern machine-moulded glass.

A crystal basket chandelier serves as a primary lighting focal point when suspended above a dining table, positioned within an entrance hall, or hung in a primary bedroom. The multifaceted glass construction diffuses light across surrounding surfaces to complement modern or classical decor.

Dust the individual glass drops gently using a microfibre cloth or a soft bristle brush. For thorough cleaning, wipe cut glass elements using isopropyl alcohol applied to a lint-free cloth, ensuring liquid does not saturate the wiring or untreated metal surfaces.
