Light the Way Home

Many many years ago I bought an ornate candleholder from an antique store in New Orleans - silver, with three arms, each draped with chandelier crystals. Over the course of moving a handful of times, some of the crystals went missing, and the candleholder sat on my piano gathering dust until I recently decided to pass it on to a new home - but I kept the crystals, because they are truly lovely, in a way that modern chandelier crystals can’t even begin to replicate. 

I set this one in simple swirls of silver wire, the better to show off the clarity of the crystal.
