Large extraordinary chandeliers!
Large chandeliers are hard to come by, especially at this price! We have two large crystal chandeliers available. By large, we mean, very large – they are 94cm wide x 96cm deep and have 16 lights. You will need a high ceiling for these!
These stunning lights were imported from the USA earlier this year especially for a wedding. They have been used for one night only. After the wedding they were dismantled, and we reassembled them here in Tauranga – all set up ready for viewing. There were originally three lights. We have kept one and are selling the other two.
These chandelier are two-tier versions from the Maria Theresa collection. They are decorated with 100% Empress Crystal (TM). (Please note these are moulded crystals.) They capture and reflect the light beautifully. Each candle bulb rests in a scalloped bobeche (dish) with a silver finish.
There are approx. 120 pendeloque drops (maple leaf shape), 60 almond shape drops and around 100 beaded swags plus many more beaded drops. Around 1100 crystals altogether. Whew – that’s impressive!
16 light bulbs are included with each chandelier.
Lights of this type would normally sell for thousands of dollars. These are much cheaper as they are moulded rather than cut crystal, but they are crystal all the same and look just stunning! Be prepared to be impressed!
You are welcome to come and view these in Pyes Pa, Tauranga.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
