Rococo

The rococo - the line of beauty - replaced the baroque under the middle part of the 18th century. This period was merrier and lighter than the earlier period. The motives were often mythological or erotic.

The rococo chandeliers often have the shape of a "cage" with a network of thin tubes of glass. They are decorated with pendeloques and flowers and at the bottom, as well as on the baroque chandeliers, a ball of glass.
