Description

Cast Brass & Patinated Black · French Empire Chandelier · Neoclassical · 6-Light

A six-light chandelier in the French Empire and Neoclassical tradition — a sculpted gilt-brass framework with bright-cut acanthus, fleuron, and mascaron details set against a matte black patinated central bowl. The two-tone palette is the signature of Empire and Restauration-period lighting.

Six long candelabra arms reach outward from the patinated bowl, finished with stylized leaf bobeches and finial drops. Scaled for formal dining rooms, library reading rooms, grand entry foyers, and Beaux-Arts and Hollywood Regency interiors with ceilings of 10 ft and above.

Why It Stands Out

Two-Tone Empire Palette

Bright-cut gilt brass paired with matte black patinated bronze — the signature French Empire and Restauration look.

Cast Empire Detailing

Hand-cast acanthus leaves, fleuron drops, and mascaron face cartouches in the gilt-bronze tradition.

Six-Arm Candelabra Crown

Six long brass arms with stylized leaf bobeches — formal candle-style sockets in the period silhouette.

Finish

Gilt Brass & Patinated Black

Hand-finished cast brass with bright-cut highlights against a matte black patinated central bowl — the French Empire two-tone palette.

Hand-finished cast brass. Each fixture is cast and finished by hand — gilt depth, patina tone, and surface texture vary slightly piece to piece. The matte black patina against bright-cut brass is the inherent character of period-style finishing.

Reinforced ceiling support recommended. Solid cast-brass chandeliers of this scale typically weigh 30–50 kg. For ceiling junction boxes rated below this, your electrician should install a heavy-duty fixture brace or anchor to a structural joist. Contact us for confirmed weight before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions

What style is this — French Empire or French Provincial? +

French Empire / Neoclassical — the formal, symmetrical, gilt-bronze tradition of Napoleonic-era Paris (1804–1815). It is not French Provincial (which is the rustic country style with distressed wood and softer curves). This piece pairs naturally with Beaux-Arts, Hollywood Regency, and Restauration-period interiors.

Will it fit my dining table or space? +

The chandelier is 32.7″ in diameter and 31.5″ tall. Best suited to round dining tables of 48–60″, rectangular tables of 6–8 ft, library rooms, and foyer entries with 10 ft+ ceilings. Hang the bottom 30–36″ above a table.

Is it dimmable? +

Yes — TRIAC-compatible with dimmable candelabra bulbs on a standard wall dimmer.

Is it suitable for hospitality and trade projects? +

Yes — well-suited to luxury hotel suite living rooms, restaurant private dining, members’-club libraries, and Beaux-Arts and Hollywood Regency residential projects. Trade pricing and specification packets available.
