Italian Pear-Shaped Tôle and Crystal Chandelier — 12 Lights, Circa 1880
Italian Pear-Shaped Tôle and Crystal Chandelier — 12 Lights, Circa 1880
An elegant Italian chandelier dating from circa 1880, distinguished by its graceful pear-shaped silhouette and refined balance of gilded tôle and crystal. The structure is formed from a delicately worked gilded tôle frame, dressed in beading, shaped into a softly tapering profile that lends the piece both lightness and architectural poise.
Strands of faceted crystals cascade along the frame, catching and refracting light with a gentle brilliance, while twelve lights create a warm and atmospheric glow.
