Refined and emblematic of French craftsmanship, this six-light chandelier is a creation of Maison Baguès, the celebrated Parisian firm founded in 1860 and renowned for its exceptional lighting. Handmade in the company’s Normandy workshops, the model combines a gold leaf-gilded wrought iron structure with a naturalistic decor of leaves and crystal drops.
The six gracefully curved arms, each embellished with delicate bobeches and finely wrought foliage, rise around a central vegetal bouquet. The design strikes a perfect balance between ornamental tradition and contemporary elegance. A large faceted crystal ball anchors the base of the composition, lending the piece visual lightness. This chandelier suits both classical and modern interiors alike.
