Qty:

Sublime is this solid bronze Empire-style chandelier with seven lights, including an extravagant torch-shaped centre. The six triumphant swans carrying the lights are supported by imperial green bobeches, the colour of which contrasts with the birds' old gold finish. The combination of these two finishes is characteristic of the style of the period. Strength, power, the spirit of conquest and victory emerge from this splendour and its allure. The eyes of the swans, the position of their wings, the daisies decorating the central body of the chandelier, all testify to the warlike enthusiasm of the period. The quality of this chandelier is extremely high. The detail of its decoration is perfect, highlighted by the old gold finish, which gives extreme relief to details such as the feathers of the swans or the carved bowls. This perfection is possible thanks to the skill of the Maison Lucien Gau craftsmen, who have mastered their art and passed it on for six generations. In the same spirit, you can admire the five-light chandelier under the reference 16060107 or the two-light chandelier under the reference 16060108 or another model with one, two or three lights visible under the respective references 16060110, 16060114 or 16060109.

Lucien Gau

Sublime classic style lighting, solid bronze and bohemian crystal

Founded in 1934, Lucien Gau is one of France's most prestigious lighting manufacturers. In particular, Lucien Gau designs and manufactures an exceptional range of chandeliers, sconces and candlesticks in the Dutch, Louis XIII, Louis XIV, Louis XV, Louis XVI, Directory, Empire and Restoration styles. The manufacture, of exceptional quality, is carried out entirely in France. The craftsmen employed by Lucien Gau work, finish, assemble and patinate solid bronze using the most traditional methods, inherited from a long tradition of excellence. The bronzes are cast in the traditional way: for each model, the craftsmen model the parts of a lamp, a reference copy. For each copy of this model, a sand mould is made into which the cast bronze is poured. The mould, which is broken when it is removed, is used only once. This process gives a unique finesse and allows great freedom of design. Once cooled and removed from the mould, each piece undergoes a long process of finishing: deburring, turning, chiseling fine ornamental motifs, polishing and patinating are all done by hand and require a unique know-how. The most commonly used patinas are old gold, matt tin, bright gold and antique. Lucien Gau's collections include luminaires of great elegance and balanced forms. Whether a masterful chandelier or a discreet appliqué, each model has the same manufacturing quality. Lucien Gau has illuminated many exceptional buildings, castles, ministries and palaces all over the world. Really Beautiful is proud to present such a collection of luminaires of exemplary design and quality.
