Magnificent 16-light antique Italian chandelier 52¼" x 33½"

Dating from the end of the nineteenth century, this stunning Italian-made glass-and-metal chandelier is an impressive size holding sixteen lights across two tiers: eight lights on the lower level and eight lights on the upper level. Note the lovely garlands of flower-shaped glass. Note each branch has two-tier glass cups holding the faux candles at the top and a superb array of crystal drop pendants from the lower cup which allow the piece to reflect light beautifully. Note the extraordinary craft throughout and how the metal frame is encased in glass.
