The brass cast wall fixtures are made up of two parts. The first is the wall fixture and the second is the four-armed crown. The trunk of the wall fixture is cast in one piece in a number of profiled elements. At the top a mushroom and at the bottom a sphere that ends in a drop, in the middle a ring to which the suspension fixture is attached. The crown is hung from this by means of a chain. The crown has a trunk with an eye at the top, underneath it three profiled ornaments that rest on a mushroom and finally a sphere that ends in a drop. Four arms are attached to the intermediate ring. These arms and the suspension fixture are decorated with curling C-scrolls both upwards and downwards. The arms end in wide saucer-shaped grease traps that support the candle holders.
