This early 20th-century French Chateau style chandelier stands at 45 cm high, 29 cm wide, and 29 cm deep. The piece comprises a moulded brass ring at the top decorated with swags and drips, alongside clear oblong crystal prisms suspended across multiple tiers from a circular metal frame. The construction incorporates brass, glass, and crystal in brass and clear colourways, complemented by suspended chains and a large bayonet bulb holder B22. The item displays vertical rectangular crystal pendants arranged in graduating layers, a central vertical suspension rod connected to hanging link hardware, and small decorative hanging crystals along the upper brass crown rim. The structure utilizes a multi-tiered circular configuration with downward-pointing cut glass components, joined by small metal jump rings throughout the framework. The fixture is designed for ceiling suspension in appropriate interior spaces.

FAQs

Tiered crystal chandeliers from the early 20th century typically feature concentric brass or bronze rings adorned with hanging glass prisms or oblong drops, designed to refract light across a space.

These fittings were constructed using cast or pressed brass frames, metal chains, and hand-cut or moulded glass crystals, often joined with small copper or wire pins.

Authentic period pieces exhibit natural oxidisation on metal frameworks, subtle hand-cutting irregularities on glass prisms, and heavy solid brass elements rather than lightweight modern alloys.

Positioning a tiered chandelier above a dining table, in an entrance hall, or in a high-ceilinged living space creates a focal point that bridges classic heritage and modern minimalism.

Dust the crystals gently using a lint-free microfibre cloth, or clean individual drops with a mixture of mild soap and warm water while avoiding wet contact with electrical wiring.
