FAQs

Birdcage chandeliers are characterised by an open, curved metal framework resembling a cage, designed to house and display cascading crystal drops and multiple candle arms.

Authentic period pieces typically feature cast bronze or brass frames, often gilded, combined with hand-cut crystal prisms, drops, and bead strands.

Authenticity is identified through traditional hand-casting methods on the metalwork, hand-cut glass or lead crystal featuring natural inclusions, and period-appropriate wiring or mounting hardware.

A statement antique light fixture serves as a dramatic focal point, contrasting effectively against minimalist contemporary architecture or complementing classic period rooms.

Clean crystals carefully by hand using a mild solution of warm water and professional glass cleaner, ensuring the metal frame and electrical components are protected from moisture.
