Created for the Hôtel Burgundy in Paris, this chandelier deploys a crown of leaves suspended above the table. To free it from the weight of bronze, Jean-Manuel Freitas conceived it in resin: curved and painted one by one by hand, its leaves imitate the metal to perfection - silvered patina, gilded reverse - and let bands of LED run through. The Oval version (ref. 7319) deploys an elongated ring, held by chains crossed over a central sphere; the Passementerie version (ref. 7316) hangs it from red cords ending in tassels.
