Gertrude Antiques has dated this piece to the Victorian era.
An eight branch candelabra signified burning many candles at once.
Most chandeliers of this size were made for use in churches, town halls and assembly rooms.
The few chandeliers that were made for private residences were installed in the rooms used for formal entertainment - the hall or the ballroom. The candles were lit only on special occasions such as weddings.
The condition is very good.
