Three-armed chandelier in gilded brass, with leaf and scroll motifs, Art Deco style.

A representative piece of the late French Art Deco movement, this three-light chandelier showcases remarkable artisanal craftsmanship, characteristic of lighting workshops from the first half of the 20th century. This suspended chandelier with three arms displays a sculptural composition of great decorative coherence. Its generous scrolls, rising from a polished brass central ring, ascend in graceful curves, each supporting a candle holder in the shape of a floral chalice. The central body consists of a sheaf of three textured ribbed leaves, cast in mass, with surface work that reveals a level of craftsmanship above standard production. The fluted ceiling rose and tulip connector complete a decorative vocabulary. The gilded brass has developed a warm natural patina over the decades, with shadowed areas that accentuate the relief of the motifs and give the whole piece a depth characteristic of fine period items. Simple in its overall silhouette but rich in detail, this chandelier fits well in both a classic interior and a contemporary decor seeking a touch of character. ________________________________________ TECHNICAL DETAILS: • Designer: Unknown. • Manufacturer: Unidentified French workshop. • Period: Circa 1950. • Materials: Brass, bronze. • Finish: Natural gilding, old patina. • Number of lights: 3. • Socket: E14. • Power supply: 220V • Compatible with LED bulbs only; the printed candle sleeves do not withstand the heat of incandescent or halogen bulbs. ________________________________________ DIMENSIONS: • Height: 75 cm (29.5 in) • Diameter: 35 cm (13.8 in) • Weight: 5 kg. ________________________________________ CONDITION: Good overall condition.
