Features
- Chandeliers with the classic "Old Master" patina may credit their surface finish to an invention in Italy during the Renaissance. When bronze is cast in its raw state, it needs after-working, or chasing, to create the texture and surface appearance desired by the artist. After chasing, by hammering, filing or polishing to vary the way the metal reflects light, bronze has a bright, golden colour, which naturally oxidizes if left untreated. Often it will be gilded, laquered, or treated with an acid to give a distinctive finish. In Padua, a technique evolved whereby a rich, black varnish was applied to darken the bronze surface. By rubbing off the varnish at the high points or raised surfaces, the exposed bronze takes on a natural chestnut colour, a technique masterfully replicated on these chandeliers.
