We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

These 1910 French Empire chandeliers consist of a matched pair of hanging light fixtures fashioned from crystal and brass. Each piece displays a gold and clear colour scheme incorporating gilt brass coronets and tapered crystal strands with faceted prism drops. Raised tops hold three glass sections and central brass hooks, leading to folded and flared leaf-shaped glass elements alongside turned components. Pierced brass coronas bear foliate casting on top, supporting elongated drops and rectangular facets together with multiple glass bead strands and downlighters. Lower large shaped pierced bezels hold matching drops, while central areas feature moulded flared glass sections with drops, downward-facing pineapple finials, and shaped brass flower heads. Each chandelier measures 120 cm high and 43 cm in diameter. These grand Regency-style fixtures suspend overhead in principal rooms of a residence to provide illumination and formal interior decoration.

FAQs

Originating in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, Empire and Regency style chandeliers feature tent-and-bag or waterfall silhouettes inspired by classical Greco-Roman motifs. They rely on cascading strings of faceted glass or crystal beads draped over a central metal framework, ending in a lower bowl or tiered drop section designed to catch and refract light.

Traditional chandeliers of this style are constructed using cast brass or bronze frames, often gilded or finished with an aged patination. The reflective elements consist of hand-cut or moulded lead crystal beads and drops, individually pinned together using brass or copper wire loops to form flexible chains.

Authentic period chandeliers typically feature hand-drawn wire pin connections, minor irregularities in cut crystal facets, and original heavy cast metal rims rather than light stamped metal. Evidence of historic rewiring, hand-chased metal decoration, and natural patination on the brass or gilding also indicate age.

A matching pair of crystal chandeliers works effectively when installed symmetrically above a long dining table, positioned along a central hallway corridor, or hung in a large open-plan living area. Combining historical lighting fixtures with clean architectural lines creates a refined contrast between classical craftsmanship and modern minimalism.

Dust chandeliers regularly using a soft feather duster or electrostatic cloth. For deeper cleaning, wipe individual crystal prisms using a lint-free microfibre cloth dampened with a mild solution of isopropyl alcohol and distilled water, taking care not to pull on the delicate wiring or submerge electrical components.
