This early 20th-century pendant chandelier was made in the Neoclassical style, which originated in Europe in the early 18th Century. The Neoclassical style was characterized by its symmetry and a return to ancient Greek and Roman motifs. The eye-catching ram heads on the fixture are prominent neoclassical motifs. Rams were multifaceted symbols of ancient Greek culture, being associated with Zeus, Ares, and the myth of the golden fleece.
The artisan captured the metaphors by intricately carving ridges in the horns, the coarseness of the hair, and fierce piercing eyes. Peta-like palmettes decorated the trim and are etched into the glass bowl and finial. Three chains are attached to the rim, connecting the piece to the crown.
Entirely coated with ormolu, the richness, and original appearance remains timeless. A rope made of natural fibers runs down the middle, concealing the electrical wire.
