The structure is solid brass and has a large, cast foliate crown, with chains, and a decorated stem and canopy. An extra special feature is the delicate, brass chain fringe that hangs from the rim. Another detail that sets this chandelier apart is the Mascaron motif; 6 cast brass grotesque masks look down from the rim. It has six medium base sockets, newly wired. Approximately 54" height x 32" diameter. 58.6 lbs. less
