Four pairs of scrolled arms project out along the perimeter of the gallery, each splitting into two lights (for a total of eight) and supporting their iron ruffled bobèches with painted candle sleeves at their center. The oval-ring is suspended from the upper canopy with four bow-styled iron chained links with gold accents. This iron chandelier has been rewired for the US and comes with a complimentary 3-foot chain and canopy painted to match.
