Florentine Chandelier with Leaves and Flowers in Golden Iron, 1880s

Antique Florentine leaf chandelier with floral decorations made at the end of the 19th century in gilded iron and six lights. Vintage Italian chandelier, circular in shape characterized by a richly decorated design with leaves and flowers and a crown with leaf motifs typical of the Florentine Renaissance style. The iron shows traces of period gilding which gives the chandelier an originality and a timeless charm, which make it perfect for enriching any environment, even contemporary ones. The six lights are illuminated with E14 bulbs, which offer brightness and a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The curved iron arms are embellished with downward-facing buds and flowers. The colacera plates are also handmade as leaf cups. The circular crown below is connected to the upper ring with three uprights made with leaf motifs and topped with ocher fabric fringes.
The indicated height, 90 cm, refers to the chandelier including the upper chain and the ceiling cup. It can possibly be reduced by eliminating the four links of the chain; the height of the chandelier measured from the bottom to the ring above the fabric measures 65 cm.
The chandelier is functional and is electrified according to European standards. Good general condition. It comes from a private villa in Milan.
