FAQs

Antique French chandeliers typically originate from periods such as the Louis XIV, Regency, or Empire eras, known for their ornate metalwork, classical symmetry, and integration of cut crystal to maximise candle and later electric light reflection.

These fixtures are traditionally constructed using cast bronze or brass frames, often gilded, paired with hand-cut lead crystal drops, prisms, and pendants wired together on a central metal armature.

Authenticity is identified through hand-chased metal details, pinned or wired crystal attachments rather than modern clips, patination appropriate to the metal age, and traditional hand-cut facets on the crystal glass.

An antique chandelier can serve as a striking focal point in a contemporary setting by contrasting its ornate, traditional craftsmanship against minimalist architectural lines and neutral colour palettes.

Maintenance involves gently dusting crystals in place with a soft cloth or using specialised non-drip spray cleaners, while avoiding harsh chemicals on the gilded bronze or brass framework to preserve the natural patina.
