FAQs

French chandeliers gained prominence during the 17th and 18th centuries, evolving from functional wooden candle holders into ornate status symbols crafted from gilt bronze, brass, and crystal.

Authentic period pieces typically feature a cast brass or bronze frame with an applied gold-gilt finish, suspended on a chain, and adorned with hand-cut lead crystal drops and pendeloques.

Authentication involves examining construction methods, such as hand-threaded pins holding crystal prisms, patination on the metal frame, cast brass components rather than stamped steel, and hand-cut facets on the glass.

Pairing an ornate gilded fixture with minimalist contemporary architecture creates a striking contrast that highlights the craftsmanship of the piece while anchoring the rooms design.

Clean fixtures carefully by hand using a mild solution of warm water and isopropyl alcohol, wiping each crystal individually with a lint-free cloth without removing them from the frame if possible.
