Swedish crystal chandeliers with wax candles, sconces and pendants

THE EMPIRE STYLE.

The Empire Style was developed in Europe during Napoleon Bonaparte's time. This style was very much inspired by the Emperor who imposed his taste for heavy ornaments. His military campaigns, especially in Egypt, inspired the decor with military details. 

The Empire style can also be found in mahogany furniture, gilded bronze objects, ornaments and decor with eagles and sphinxes. The Empire Style could be found all through Europe, including Sweden, where it was generally less pompous than the French Style.

The Lancelot Collection has extraordinarily detailed rims, the Nobel Collection has rims with stamped brass ornaments, the Grand Collection has the most impressive chandeliers over 5 feet tall.  The Angel Collection  has beautiful angels on the rim. The Brilliant Collection has the detailed rims of the Lancelot collection but is pinned with a slightly lesser crystal quality, making them less expensive. The crystal Chandeliers in the Empire Style are available in different finishes, and come with your choice of a drop bottom, a basket bottom and sometimes with a gorgeous glass bottom.
