{"product_id":"antique-19th-century-french-bronze-crystal-girandole-lamps-set-of-4","title":"Antique 19th Century French Bronze \u0026 Crystal Girandole Lamps (Set of 2)","description":"This exceptional pair of antique French girandole lamps showcases the opulence and artistry characteristic of 19th-century design, rendered here in intricately cast bronze and finished with an abundance of cut crystal prisms. Each lamp presents a beautifully tiered silhouette, beginning with a faceted crystal finial and cascading downward through delicately scrolled bronze arms adorned with floral crystal rosettes, suspended teardrop prisms, and faceted ball drops that catch the light with striking brilliance. The bronze bases are richly detailed with classical motifs, displaying an impressive level of hand-work that speaks to their period craftsmanship. Estimated to date from the 1800s, the lamps were rewired in the early to mid-20th century, retaining vintage bakelite-style plugs consistent with 1930s–1950s updates. Purchased in New Orleans in the late 1960s and held in the same family since, the pair carries a strong provenance. Their sculptural presence, exceptional ornamentation, and beautiful interplay of bronze and crystal make them standout examples of French girandole lighting and a rare opportunity for collectors of antique decorative arts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Both lamps are antique pieces and show the subtle surface wear and patina expected from their age, but no major flaws or losses are present. The crystal prisms, bronze components, and decorative details remain intact and well preserved. Both lamps are in working condition, though the wiring is vintage and may be original to an earlier rewiring period. Overall, they present beautifully with age-appropriate character consistent with antique lighting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 13 1\/2\"W x 13 1\/2\"D x 30 1\/2\"H","brand":"Antique","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52386574500149,"sku":"701","price":8574.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/7499\/1157\/files\/af399fc7-fa84-4f5c-a93e-777b713f01db_74bf8a7a-91d7-4b11-9719-abba3bbd6257.jpg?v=1772302386","url":"https:\/\/luandhome.com\/products\/antique-19th-century-french-bronze-crystal-girandole-lamps-set-of-4","provider":"Lu and Home","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
