Item of the week
A Baltic cobalt, clear glass, gilt bronze 12 light Chandelier
Dealer: Burton Antiques LTD
It is the season for extravagance, and if this chandelier doesn’t say ‘extravagant’, I don’t know what does!
This substantial Baltic and clear glass and gilt bronze twelve light chandelier dates back to the early 2oth century. It has been designed in Neoclassical style, in the manner of designs by Johann Zeck. The outscrolled corona cast with anthemia sit above a slender stem mounted with a central ovoid urn which descends to a circlet with sconces and swan-neck branches holding aloft a further tier of sconces hung with two tiers of faceted pendants and further bead swags overall. It may not be subtle, but it certainly is beautiful.
Price: £20,000
