Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. 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.

This French chateau style chandelier dates to the 1930 period and works as an overhead lighting fixture in a dining room, hallway or living room. The piece is constructed from gilt metal, crystal and glass in gold and clear tones, comprising a tall central tent of cascading crystal bead strands surmounted by a crown corona with upright leaf tips. A pierced ornate metal gallery band encircles the middle section, supporting eight scrolling arms that extend outwards to hold candle-style lamps complete with ribbed glass bobeche drip pans. Seven additional internal light fittings sit within the central framework, while a lower bowl of graduated swaged crystal faceted pendants dangles beneath the main body. The chandelier measures 63 cm high by 69 cm wide and 69 cm deep, excluding the original chain and ceiling rose. The metal surfaces display a reflective gold finish, and the entire assembly is fully rewired and PAT tested for modern electrical use in the home.

FAQs

French waterfall chandeliers, often featuring tent and bag crystal formations, originated in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and are characterised by cascading glass beads that obscure the central frame and reflect light.

These light fixtures typically feature cast brass or bronze frames finished with gilded leaf or ormolu coating, adorned with hand-cut crystal or glass octagonal beads and drops.

Authentic antique examples feature heavy cast metal framework with detailed chasing, hand-cut glass beads with slight variations in facets, antique wire fixings, and natural patination across the gilded surfaces.

Suspending a tiered crystal chandelier in a contemporary dining space, hallway, or drawing room creates an intentional visual contrast, providing a refined focal point above clean-lined furniture.

Dust the crystal beads regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, and gently clean glass drops using a mild solution of isopropyl alcohol and distilled water while avoiding harsh chemical cleaners on gilded metalwork.
