While we categorize this amazing piece as a chandelier, the hexagonal canopy is flush mounted to the ceiling. The brass on the top shined to highlight the cast foliage detailing. The delicate artichoke finial centering the piece. Long chains hang down to cast brass crockets. The crockets themselves are a traditional element of Gothic architecture, curled leaves wrapping around the shade holders. The art glass hand blown shades are a delicate cream and orange with hints of pink giving the light a warm and feminine touch. While the drama in this piece is the length of the chain, it can be shortened to fit your space, but hanging in a wrapping stairway would be the perfect place to hang this incredible piece!
