Carved Solid Wood · French Country Chandelier · Antique Gilt · Two Sizes
A carved solid-wood chandelier in the French Country and Gustavian tradition — a hand-turned wood column rises from a forged-iron base, branching into scrolled iron arms with carved wood bobeches and faceted antique-gilt pendants. The finish is a hand-applied old gold leaf with a soft distressed patina.
Available in two sizes — an 8-head version for dining rooms and country interiors, and a 20-head estate-scale version for grand foyers, double-height great rooms, and luxury hospitality projects.
Why It Stands Out
Hand-Turned Solid Wood Column
A solid-wood center column carved by hand in the French Provençal tradition — fluted, ringed, and crowned with a metal flower.
Forged Iron Arms
Hand-forged iron scrolled arms with carved wood bobeches and faceted gilt diamond pendants.
Hand-Applied Old Gold
Distressed antique gold leaf finish — soft patina, naturally aged appearance, no two pieces identical.

Finish
Antiqued Brass · Hand-Applied Antique Gilt
Distressed antique gold leaf over carved wood and forged iron — softly aged French Country palette suited to traditional and farmhouse interiors.
Hand-applied antique gilt finish. Each chandelier is finished by hand — the distressed gold-leaf depth, patina, and wear pattern vary piece to piece. This soft naturally aged appearance is the inherent character of hand-finished gilt, not a flaw.
20-head version — reinforced ceiling support recommended. Weight exceeds standard junction-box rating. Anchor to a structural joist or install a heavy-duty fixture brace. The 8-head version mounts on a standard junction box.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which size fits my space — 8-head or 20-head? +
The 8-head (∅ 28.7″) suits dining tables of 5–7 ft, breakfast nooks, library rooms, and foyer entries. The 20-head estate-scale (∅ 44.9″ × H 53.9″) is for grand foyers, double-height great rooms, and hospitality with 14 ft+ ceilings.
Will my piece match the photo? +
The hand-applied antique gilt patina varies piece to piece — your fixture will share the overall distressed gold palette but the exact wear pattern, gold-leaf depth, and patina tone will be unique. This is the character of hand-finished gilt.
What bulbs does it take? +
Eight (small version) or twenty (estate-scale) E12 or E14 candelabra bulbs — region-matched. Bulbs not included. Use warm white 2700–3000K LED candle bulbs; max 25W per socket. Filament-style flame-tip bulbs match the candle aesthetic best.
Is it dimmable? +
Yes — TRIAC-compatible with dimmable E12 / E14 bulbs on a standard wall dimmer.
Is it suitable for hospitality and trade projects? +
Yes — well-suited to French Country boutique hotels, farmhouse hospitality, restaurant private dining, members'-club libraries, and Tuscan-style residences. Trade pricing and specification packets available.

The wood story
Grain you can see, warmth you can feel
Turned, carved or bead-strung by hand from walnut, oak and beech, every wooden part shows its own grain and colour — expect the natural variation you would want from a solid-wood piece. Finished with low-sheen oils and lacquers that let the grain breathe.
Sizing a chandelier
Add the room’s length and width in feet — that number in inches is a comfortable diameter. Then check the ceiling can carry the weight.
