Cheval Large Ornate Chandelier 95 cm – Antique Gold Iron Frame with Clear Glass Drops

Cheval Large Ornate Chandelier 95 cm – antique gold statement lighting with clear glass detailing

The Cheval large ornate chandelier is an impressive statement light inspired by the elegance of traditional French and palatial interiors. Its elaborate iron framework, warm antique gold finish and abundance of clear glass beads and faceted drops create a richly layered composition designed for spacious, high-ceilinged rooms.

Decorative scrolling arms, circular ornaments and cascading glass garlands give the chandelier a beautifully detailed silhouette. Once illuminated, the clear elements catch and reflect the light from numerous angles, enhancing the depth of the design and introducing a soft, atmospheric sparkle.

The chandelier itself measures 95 cm high, 95 cm wide and 95 cm deep. Its overall height, including the chain, is 200 cm, making Cheval particularly well suited to a grand living room, formal dining room, entrance hall, stairwell or double-height interior.

Large ornate chandelier for a grand living room

With its generous 95 cm proportions, Cheval has the scale required to become the principal decorative feature of a substantial room. It works particularly well in interiors with high ceilings, decorative cornicing, wall panelling, tall windows or traditional architectural detailing.

The wide arrangement of curved arms creates an elegant horizontal presence, while the taller ornamental section draws the eye upwards and emphasises the height of the room. This balance makes the chandelier feel impressive from both close range and across a larger interior.

Even when unlit, Cheval retains the appearance of a decorative installation. The antique gold framework and transparent embellishments form an intricate composition that brings texture, movement and visual interest to the ceiling area.

Antique gold iron frame with scrolling detail

The chandelier’s structure is made from iron and finished in a warm antique gold tone. The surface has a softly aged appearance that complements the historical influences of the design without appearing overly bright or highly polished.

Curved arms, ornamental scrolls and circular decorative elements create an elaborate framework around the lamp holders. These details give Cheval its recognisable classical character and help the chandelier look attractive from every viewing angle.

The antique gold finish coordinates beautifully with marble, dark or medium-toned timber, decorative plasterwork, brass accents and fabrics in cream, taupe, champagne, navy and deep green.

Clear glass beads, garlands and faceted drops

The metal structure is embellished with clear glass beads, floral details, garlands and suspended drops in a variety of shapes. These transparent elements soften the substantial iron framework and give the chandelier a lighter, more luminous appearance.

Faceted surfaces capture light and create delicate reflections around the fitting. The effect is particularly attractive in the evening, when the chandelier becomes a warm and decorative source of ambient illumination.

The clear glass detailing also allows Cheval to coordinate with mirrored furniture, glass tables, crystal-style accessories and polished stone surfaces without making the room feel visually heavy.

French-inspired chandelier for classic interiors

Cheval takes inspiration from ornate chandeliers traditionally found in French townhouses, country residences and formal European interiors. Its scrolling frame, candle-style lamp holders and decorative drops create a romantic yet imposing silhouette.

In a traditional room, the chandelier can be paired with panelled walls, carved furniture, decorative fireplaces and full-length curtains. In a modern classic interior, it creates an elegant contrast with cleaner furniture, restrained colours and contemporary finishes.

The design also works well in an eclectic setting, where a highly decorative chandelier is used to bring character and a sense of history to an otherwise modern space.

Statement chandelier above a dining table

Cheval makes an impressive centrepiece above a large dining table. Its 95 cm width provides the visual scale required for a substantial rectangular or round table and helps define the dining area within an open-plan interior.

The height of the fitting should be carefully planned so that it creates impact without interrupting sightlines across the table. In a room with a high ceiling, the extended chain allows the chandelier to be positioned at a proportionate level.

The antique gold finish works particularly well with marble-topped tables, dark timber, upholstered dining chairs and tableware featuring warm metallic accents.

Chandelier for an entrance hall or stairwell

With an overall height of up to 200 cm including the chain, Cheval is also suitable for a spacious entrance hall, gallery landing or stairwell. Its multi-level form can be appreciated from several viewpoints and helps accentuate the vertical proportions of the space.

Displayed in a double-height entrance, the chandelier creates an immediate focal point and establishes a refined decorative tone from the moment someone enters the home.

Before installation, the suspension height should be planned in relation to doorways, staircases, walkways and surrounding architectural features.

Which interiors suit the Cheval chandelier?

The Cheval antique gold chandelier complements classic, French-inspired, modern classic, glamorous, palatial, vintage-inspired and eclectic interiors.

In a modern classic living room, it can be combined with pale upholstered seating, wall mouldings, a stone fireplace and discreet brass details. Within a glamorous dining room, the clear glass drops work naturally with mirrored finishes, polished surfaces and richly textured fabrics.

In a more contemporary setting, Cheval can become an intentional contrast to clean-lined furniture and simple walls, bringing ornament, warmth and individuality to the room.

Choosing bulbs for the Cheval chandelier

The chandelier is designed for E14 bulbs with a maximum wattage of 40 W per fitting. Decorative candle-shaped LED bulbs are particularly well suited to the traditional proportions of the lamp holders.

Warm white light will complement the antique gold finish and create an inviting atmosphere in a living room, dining room or entrance hall. Using bulbs with a consistent colour temperature and brightness will preserve the balanced appearance of the chandelier.

Energy-efficient LED bulbs allow the decorative lighting effect to be achieved with reduced energy consumption and lower heat output than traditional incandescent bulbs.

Installing the Cheval chandelier

Because of its size, suspended construction and electrical requirements, Cheval should be installed by a qualified electrician. The ceiling structure must be assessed and suitable fixings selected to support the complete fitting securely.

The suspension height should be planned according to the ceiling height, furniture position and purpose of the room. When installed above a dining table, sufficient clearance should be maintained between the underside of the chandelier and the tabletop.

The clear glass decorations should be handled carefully during installation. Supporting each element by its metal connection rather than by the glass itself will help protect the decorative components.

How to care for an ornate glass chandelier

Switch off the electricity supply and allow all bulbs to cool fully before cleaning. Remove loose dust from the iron framework using a soft, dry, lint-free cloth or a delicate brush.

Clean the glass beads and drops carefully with a soft microfibre cloth. Apply glass cleaner to the cloth rather than spraying it directly onto the chandelier, preventing moisture from reaching the lamp holders, wiring or metal connections.

Avoid abrasive pads, harsh chemicals and aggressive metal polishes, as these may damage the antique gold finish or mark the clear glass elements.

Safe use

The chandelier has an IP20 rating and is intended for dry indoor rooms. It should not be installed in bathrooms, outdoor spaces or areas exposed to moisture.

Use only E14 bulbs that comply with the maximum wattage of 40 W. Isolate the electricity supply and allow the bulbs to cool before replacing them.

The glass drops and their metal connections should be checked periodically to ensure that all decorative elements remain securely attached.
