Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE EDWARDIAN ERA:
Brass wire pins securing the glass drops: traditional hand assembly before modern clips.
Dark natural oxidisation across the cast brass frame: decades of undisturbed age.
Hand-dressed facet edges on the glass drops: early 20th-century glass cutting.
Moulded scallop-rim glass drip pans: typical of French light fittings around 1910.

This Independent Date Guide was compiled by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. It works only from the photographs shown on this page and is never told the date the dealer has declared. It is a guide, not a guarantee of age, and occasional errors can occur.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

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.

This large eight-branch Edwardian French Chateau style chandelier combines brass and dark iron materials in a multi-tiered scrollwork frame with visible metal hardware. The fixture incorporates scalloped glass bobeches, faceted cut-glass drops, tear-shaped glass pendants, and turned upper column sections, displaying a clear and brass colour scheme alongside aged dark metal finishes. It measures 110 cm in height and 55 cm in diameter. Suited for placement in high-ceilinged formal reception rooms or dining spaces, the lighting fixture operates as a central overhead focal point. The item displays signs of partial rewiring and age wear on the metal and glass components. The visible construction includes curved structural arms, an ornate top finial, and draped crystal garlands suspended from the main frame. Buyers install this piece directly into ceiling electrical points to provide ambient room illumination.

FAQs

French chandeliers from the early 20th century typically feature a wrought metal or brass frame adorned with faceted cut-glass prisms, pendant drops, and glass bobeches designed to refract light throughout a room.

Construction usually incorporates cast brass, bronze, or iron framework paired with hand-cut glass or crystal prisms, glass dish cups, and central glass stem components.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-bent wire pins securing the glass drops, slight irregularities in hand-cut glass facets, period-appropriate fixture mountings, and natural patination on the metal framework.

Suspend the fixture above a dining table, within an entrance hall, or above a free-standing bath to create a focal point that contrasts historical detail against clean architectural lines.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and clean individual glass drops using a mild solution of isopropyl alcohol and distilled water, ensuring all electrical components remain completely dry.
