French C1910 6 Arm Birdcage Crystal Chandelier Fully Restored

Genuine French 6 arm Gilded Brass & Crystal Birdcage Chandelier dating from around 1910-1920.

The chandelier is dressed with approximately 67 original large hand-cut antique crystals with high lead content (34-38%, typical of this period, as apposed to 15-24% modern crystals) measuring app 8x5.5cm / 3.5x2in (long x widest point), which give you such a beautiful and dazzling array of coloured reflections. A large hand cut crystal ball suspends from the bottom.

The chandelier has 6 arms each holding 1 bulb; providing 6 bulbs in total.

The frame is solid and has a lovely patina which would fit in nicely in both period and modern homes; it has been sympathetically cleaned and restored without loosing the patina.

This chandelier has been professionally rewired and restored to the highest standard using only the best components, ready for immediate installation.

"Heritage Quality Without the High Street Mark-up"

Hodgson Antiques (www.hodgsonantiques.co.uk) has been in the antique trade and dealing independently since 2012. Based in Derbyshire countryside operating solely online, we specialise in antique and vintage lighting, table lamps, ceiling lights, chandeliers, wall lights and lanterns together with some selectively sourced decorative items. We source items from around the UK, Europe and the rest of the world.

We believe that acquiring exceptional, fully restored period lighting shouldn't require paying premium high-street showroom prices. By operating entirely online and focusing our resources into our own dedicated restoration workshop, we have completely reimagined the traditional antique gallery model. We have a significant structural pricing advantage over traditional brick-and-mortar storefronts, which enables us to offer the exact high quality and meticulous restoration you find in the high street showrooms – delivered directly from our workshop at transparent competitive trade prices passing substantial savings onto our customers.

All our antique lights are fully overhauled, professionally cleaned, rewired and PAT tested to UK standards ready for installation. They are supplied with period-style matching aged fixing brass screws, fittings.

Our lighting is safely wrapped in heavy-duty protective packaging and dispatched the next day via premium tracked courier within mainland UK (delivery charge applies at checkout). As an independent workshop, we highly appreciate direct bank transfers (BACS). If you prefer to pay directly via bank transfer, we will happily waive the delivery fee as a thank you.
