An exceptional Empire ormolu and Mont-Cenis cut-crystal twenty-seven lights chandelier in two rows, attributed to the Maison Chaumont.

The circular corona surmounted by palm-shaped finials above a cascade of drops
and myrzas in cut crystal. The main ring, composed of a gilded bronze ornament
with winged putti holding garlands of laurel on volutes, interlacing flowers, foliage
and palmettes, issuing nine candle-branches, supporting nozzles with crystal drip-
pans. From this ring descend short chains of cut crystal drops that join a second bronze ring adorned with applied reserves with leaf motifs and rosettes, to which are attached eighteen candle branches, below which the central shaft is encased in a 'tent'
formed by strings of cut crystal drops, in the center of which a circular gilt bronze base cast with lotus leaves and palmette and foliate pendant.
