Description from the seller
This splendid chandelier, crafted by the prestigious F.B.A.I. manufactory (Fabbrica Bronzi Artistici Italia), is an authentic masterpiece of Italian craftsmanship.
Features and Style
The chandelier, made of gilded brass and hand-painted porcelain, is a magnificent example of Rococo style. Its richly detailed decorations, inspired by French and Italian eighteenth-century taste, make it an extraordinarily beautiful piece. The sinuous lines, gilded scrolls, and cobalt finishes with painted floral inserts evoke the luxury and refinement typical of the Louis XV era.
