Description
24-Inch Empire Brass Basket 15-Light Crystal Chandelier: GL436C24BR-1
The GL436C24BR-1 is a 24-inch wide traditional Empire Crystal Chandelier featuring a rich brass basket frame and precision-cut crystals. Inspired by the European grandeur of 19th-century French design, this 15-light masterpiece is engineered to add a warm, regal elegance to formal dining rooms and classic foyers. Technical Note: It bridges the gap between heritage aesthetics and modern structural integrity, utilizing a specialized anti-oxidation coating for permanent luster.
KEY FEATURES:
- Heritage Brass Artistry: Constructed with a high-grade brass-finished stainless steel frame that evokes timeless warmth and complements traditional estate decor.
- Classic Empire 'Basket' Silhouette: A sophisticated tear-drop design that uses tightly strung crystal chains to create a continuous, shimmering surface of light.
- Sophisticated Light Diffusion: Features 15 internal E12 sockets designed to maximize prismatic 'fire' while eliminating harsh bulb glare through thousands of hand-strung facets.
- Regal Spatial Balance: At 24 inches in diameter and 36 inches in height, this fixture provides a powerful vertical anchor for rooms without obstructing architectural sightlines.
USER-FRIENDLY & INSTALLATION DATA:
- Mounting & Power: Designed for a standard Junction Box connection; however, professional structural reinforcement and mounting to structural ceiling members are recommended due to the 65.19 lb weight.
- Ceiling Compatibility: This fixture is engineered for flat ceilings only; it is not compatible with sloped or vaulted surfaces.
- Luminous Controls: Supports 15 x E12 bulbs (40W Max); engineered for a warm, candle-like glow. Bulbs not included.
- Logistics Note: Shipped in specialized, reinforced heavy-duty crating via Curbside Freight Delivery only to protect the brass finish and crystal integrity.
ECO-FRIENDLY MANUFACTURING:
- Sustainability Standards: Manufactured with high-clarity, sustainable crystal components and a high-grade stainless steel framework designed for multi-generational longevity.
- Certified Safety: Fully U.L. listed, meeting rigorous safety standards for heavy residential installations.

VISUAL SATURATION & PLACEMENT STRATEGY:
- Timeless Warmth: The heritage brass finish acts as a warm reflector, deepening the golden hues of the light to create an inviting, cozy atmosphere.
- Shadow-Free Performance: The "Basket" design is prized for its ability to hide bare bulbs, allowing light to pass through thousands of prisms for a softer, more luxurious glow.
- Traditional Estate Alignment: Perfectly scaled for formal dining areas and kitchens. For the best visual effect, we recommend "Warm White" (2700K-3000K) bulbs to enhance the rich brass tones.
PROJECT FAQ’S:
Q: Does the brass finish on the GL436C24BR-1 tarnish over time?
A: No. This fixture features a protective anti-oxidation coating. Simply dust with a soft, dry cloth and avoid abrasive chemical cleaners to maintain its luster.
Q: Is this chandelier pre-strung?
A: To prevent damage during transit, crystals are packaged separately. The brass frame arrives fully assembled, and you will "dress" the fixture level-by-level once the frame is securely mounted.
SPECIFIER’S PERSPECTIVE:
"The Anchor of Traditional Sophistication"
"When designing for traditional estates or high-end transitional homes, the GL436C24BR-1 is a quintessential choice. The brass finish has a depth that common gold finishes can't replicate, and the 65lb weight provides that structural gravity necessary for a truly custom feel."
