Antique French Louis XVI Sack of Pearls Chandelier is a marvel of the crystal-worker's art!  Using brushed steel for the architecture, it includes the original matching canopy.  Just below the canopy appears the crown with arched arms festooned with crystals and holding large teardrop faceted crystals.  Crystal strands swag down to the main circular body from which the lighting arms emanate, appearing between arched arms with crystals that match those on the crown. From the circular body hangs the so-called sack of pearls under which appear spearhead-shaped crystals encircling a faceted ball.
Newly electrified with standard wiring, included in the price!
Circa mid-1900s
Measures 35H x 24.5 in diameter
