Description

This incredible chandelier is crafted from cut glass and its design is inspired by the works of the celebrated English firm F&C Osler.

Elegant cut glass pieces cover the central stem extending down through the whole length of the chandelier. Each one is of a different shape adding interest to the design. Below the top canopy are several scrolls terminating with pendants. Placed in various parts of the stem are several bowl-shaped pieces with various-sized beaded pendants.

The illumination comes from three points on the chandelier, each one of a different design. The highest part is made up of several scroll arms, in the middle of each one a superb cut-glass composition with notched prism pendants and topped by a shaped finial. All bobeches are adorned with many cut designs and cover the bulbs. The second tier of lighting is smaller providing a clean break between the two more ornate levels. The arms are round bending downwards and terminate with cut glass bobeches. The lowest tier is the most ornate. Its design is very similar to the first level, but it is larger and includes additional pendants. The base of the chandelier features a faceted pendant.

Almost 4 meters in height, this magnificent chandelier is sure to beautifully illuminate the appropriate space.
