Exclusive Empire 'Sac à Perle' chandelier

Monumental Empire chandelier in bronze and crystal. The frame is crafted from high-quality fire-gilded bronze, giving the chandelier its deep, warm luster. The most striking feature is the finely detailed bronze figures adorning the central band. These classical figures, often in the form of winged goddesses of victory (Victorias), caryatids, or graceful female figures, hold the candle arms. The detailing of the drapery and facial features is of an exceptionally high standard.

The ‘sac à perle’ (pearl bag) is constructed from numerous strands of flawless, hand-cut crystal. At the top, the chandelier is crowned by a refined palmette crown, also in gilt bronze, from which crystal chains cascade down like a waterfall. This object is not merely a lighting fixture, but a historical work of art that exudes the grandeur of the Napoleonic era. A rare piece for the serious collector, ideally suited for a prestigious space with high ceilings.
