Description

Made from bronze and fine-grained alabaster, the chandelier features hand-painted cherry blossoms on each cream-colored shade. When illuminated, these shades emit a warm amber glow, highlighting the floral designs and setting a cozy atmosphere.

The chandelier’s baluster-shaped center is adorned with four s-scroll arms featuring intricate foliate motifs, adding a touch of historical charm. Alabaster, a smooth sedimentary gypsum rock, has been valued for its carving ease and aesthetic appeal since ancient times. Its popularity dates back to ancient Egyptians, who gave alabaster its name after its use by the followers of the cat goddess Bast, also referred to as the “eye of the moon”.

This chandelier seamlessly blends beauty and functionality. Its warm glow and detailed design make it a standout piece for any elegant interior.
