Description
This beautiful Louis XVI style Patinated Iron & Tole chandelier dates back to the 20th century & features iron acanthus leaves, vines, & a tassel finial. The aging gives the fixture subtle yet gorgeous character. There are four chandeliers in our collection, available individually, in pairs, or a complete set. Each piece in our shop is professionally rewired & in working order. They have been rewired at our fourth generation antique store in The French Quarter of New Orleans. Each chandelier & lantern comes with a vintage canopy, three feet of chain, & ample wire, & each sconce comes with all materials needed to mount. Each piece is newly wired with UL approved wire & sockets & is fully operable. This piece is a collection of a fourth generation, family owned business in New Orleans called The French Antique Shop. The store was first opened by Marie & Marcel Granet in Paris when they married in 1927. A jewish family, they came to the United States before the outbreak of the Second World War, leaving on the last boat out of Paris' port, Le Havre. When they reached New Orleans, they fell in love with the Vieux Carre as it reminded them of home. Their first shop here in New Orleans was located on Chartres Street in the French Quarter & was stocked originally with pieces they had brought with them from Paris. They moved to Royal Street & settled in their present expanded location at 225 Royal Street in 1947. Today, the shop is run by the third & fourth generation, Marc, & his two sons Michael & Brian. By purchasing from our shop, you're supporting a family run business which focuses on artisan made, high quality craft with an emphasis on quality. Thank you for helping us continue a dream started four generations ago! French Rustic Patinated Iron & Tole Chandelier, Louis Xvi Style, Mid 20Th Century, 5 | Five Lights
