Stylized Bulbs: Modernized slightly with spherical frosted bulbs for render-friendly lighting while retaining the silhouette and proportions of the original gaslight-era design.
Hanging Chain Assembly: Realistic suspension chains and a ceiling crown make this model ready to drop into any vaulted space or stone-walled interior.
