Multi-arm chandelier - Restoration
Welcome to today's video, where you saw the renovation of a multi-arm chandelier.
A chandelier is a lighting fixture with multi-branched supports. For multiple lights used to illuminate the interior of living or social spaces. Chandeliers are often ornate and were originally designed to hold candles, but now bulbs and LEDs are commonly used.
If we go back a few thousand years, we find that the earliest primitive lamps were made of stone. A stone bowl filled with vegetable oil with a wick from burning wood dates back to the Bronze Age. In medieval Egypt and Rome oil bowls made of floats and closed flat cauldrons with wicks were used, which are discovered in dozens to hundreds of pieces during archaeological excavations. These kahans were often decorated with plastic decorations and were most often made of bronze. In wealthier households, small kanchans were assembled into sophisticated systems, where several of them were hung on stands or chandeliers hanging from the ceiling.
Another light source was a chandelier for wax candles, which had to have deep cups so that the wax did not drip onto the ground. These chandeliers were attached to a rope d by a pulley near the ceiling, which allowed it to be lowered to the ground and the candles easily lit.
Today, we already use electric chandeliers.
Also worth mentioning is the largest chandelier in the world, which can be seen on the island of Saipan in the Imperial Palace casino. Two glass dragons, each 32 m long and weighing 40 tons, are composed of 13,000 scales and 300,000 diode chips.

Thank you Veronika and Radek
That would've been a very expensive fixture as it was made from solid brass. Most from that period were plated tin. Your restoration was beautifully done and the shades were spot on. Thank you for sharing.
Oh yes. Almost 14 kilos of brass would be worth something even today :)
@@VeradonaRestoration $3.50 take it or leave it.
It looks perfect, I didn't see a spot on it.

From sad to spectacular. Thank you Radek and Veronika for your Easter treat.
Thanks for watching and positive comment Neil :)
The restoration is amazing. But what I find equally amazing is that you remembered where all the bits went when putting it back together! 👏👏👏👏
Like all of your restorations, beautifully restored. Bonus: adding info in the Dragon Chandeliers in the Saigon Palace. Thx for doing this, filming it and sharing it with us.
We are happy, thanks for watching :)
It seems fitting that you would release this today! The light of the World is celebrated today and you found a Jewel in the rough that you gave life back to today! Veronika, thank you for the history. We learned something we did not know! You are an excellant researcher! Damn Pretty too! May God Bless you and your family ! Hugs to all! B&T
Thanks guys for watching and sorry for writing so late. Radek&Veronica
Это очень точная и тяжелая работа по восстановлению ! Удачи Вам в будущем !👍
Спасибо за признание, хорошего дня.
Превосходно! Хоть эта люстра не такая уж и старая, но в любом случае очень радует, что Вы дали ей новую жизнь!
Наверное, нет, я предполагаю, что это более новая реплика, но в итоге выглядит неплохо :)
Вероника и Радек, вы молодцы! Всегда смотрю ваши видео с удовольствием. Прекрасная работа мастера и последующая история изделия. Удачи Вам !🎉
Большое спасибо. Мы рады, что вам это нравится.
GOSH, I love love watching the work being done, but also love the bit of history. .................thank you
Thank you very much :)
Szia Radek.Ez a csillár gyönyörűen megtervezett és kivitelezett darab,de szerintem most nyerte el igazi szépségét a Te kezeid által.Lenyűgöző felújítás lélegzetelállító eredménnyel. További jó munkát! Üdv Tibor.
Köszönöm szépen Tibor a szép és biztató hozzászólást. Üdvözlet Csehországból.
Beautiful work. Using the vacuum sealer was genius. Plus I absolutely love the historical research at the end. So glad I found this channel.
We are glad you like our channel, we are honored, thank you.
Какая кропотливая работа! Представляю сколько времени и труда вы потратили на реставрацию этой люстры! Очень красиво получилось! Просто как новая! Отличная работа! 👍👍👍
Мы очень рады, спасибо за просмотр.
Alternativ hätte man auch die Patina drauf lassen können. Sie hat auch ihren Reiz.
@@bernhardfaust9467 Ja. Das hättest du tun können. Aber die Restauratoren haben es getan. Wenn Sie sich mit solchen Dingen beschäftigen, bin ich mir sicher, dass Sie es so machen werden, wie es Ihnen gefällt. Ich entschuldige mich für die Übersetzung über einen Online-Übersetzer.
@@bernhardfaust9467 Ja, aber ich bin den Wünschen des Kunden gefolgt.
@@VeradonaRestoration Vždy budou nespokojení s čímkoli. Důležité je nevěnovat jim pozornost a pokračovat ve své práci..... Pardon. Překlad přes Google překladatel.
Absolutely Stunning! Watching the restoration of this beauty on Easter Sunday, I wonder how many family meetings , gatherings and wonderful meals filled with joy and happiness this piece has witnessed over the years! Gorgeous! Happy Easter!
Yes Debra interesting thought thank you. Hugs :)
Good morning, Radek and Veronika. Thank you for another amazing restoration. That came out absolutely beautiful. The brass looks so beautiful when cleaned and polished. I love it. I hope you're doing well my friend. Take care. ~Kevin
Hello Kevin, thank you for viewing and praising our work. We're glad you're still with us :) Hugs, R&V
Beyond beautiful!!! Awesome job!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️
Thank you very much for watching. :)
Радек и Вероника! Спасибо за возрождение ещё одной вещи и интересную лекцию! Поймала себя на том, что не подсматриваю английские субтитры и всё понимаю.
Нам очень приятно, спасибо, Мария.
A real mess when you started but beautiful when you finished. Well done Radek and Veronika.
Thank you very much our friends :) Sorry for replying only now. Sacrifice for all :) R & V
Very nice. I love that you restored it to a polished brass finish, rather than trying to replicate the original patina. It looks very nice
From the first look I was eagerly anticipating what the chandelier was going to look like. You absolutely did not disappoint! Stunning work.
We are so pleased Molly. We're glad we didn't disappoint you, thanks for watching.
I think you've outdone yourselves with this one. Magnificent
We are so happy, thank you for watching.
This is beautiful thanks for sharing and you have a great day
Restored to see its true beauty…was wonderful to watch it happen. Great video!
Thank you very much. We are glad that you liked our chandelier.
@@VeradonaRestoration Really saved a beautiful chandelier! But your video was fantastic and that made such an impact to all it took to restore this chandelier…so the video was as important and appreciated equally…if not more! ❤️
@@hickorygolddoc Wow, thank you so much, I appreciate it.
That chandelier is absolutely gorgeous!
It makes me happy. Thank you very much for watching.
Wow,the brass chandelier restoration turned out gorgeous.
It makes me happy. Thank you very much for watching.
Absolutely beautiful transformation - I think the original creator would be proud to know that this piece is still so beautiful! Sending you a big hug straight from Minas Gerais -Brazil.
Thank you very much Pablo , we are glad that you liked the result of our work. Greetings from the Czech Republic :)
Еще одна шикарная работа в копилочку. Так держать😊 Спасибо
Я рад, спасибо за просмотр.
После Ваших реставраций улучшается настроение! Красота! А ведь кто то просто выбросил бы эту люстру, сменив на китайский ширпотреб. Мечтаю и свою люстру в большой комнате довести до ума, сделанную в советском союзе. Просто надо найти время и приложить руки. Спасибо за Ваши позитивные видео.
Успехов !💖
Большое спасибо за просмотр нашего видео. Я рад, что тебе понравилось.
The lampshades brought back memories of my babcia who worked in a lampshade factory in the 1920's. One of the photographs I have of her is where she is sitting at her station in the factory with stacks of lampshades all around her.
Thank you so much Tisha for your comment. We are glad to have brought you the memory of your grandmother. Greetings and hugs from the Czech Republic.
You are indeed a beautiful craftsman and was very impressed with your work just amazing thankyou for showing us how to turn back the clock. from Australia.

Krásný kousek. Lustry jsou jedna z věcí, které obdivuji na zámcích a hradech. Dobrá práce. Děkuji za potěšení zkouknout renovaci tohoto díla.

Very many thanks to you both. This is a beautiful piece. It would grace any palace. Thank you for sharing !
Thank you very much for watching. We are glad that you liked the chandelier.
Cleaning that would be definitely a labour of love ! Very nice renovation
Thank you very much for watching.
I love the end result, you've truly brought it back from the trash to a lovely treasure The only thing that freaked me out was bare-handing the glass bulbs.. then I realized they must be LED because you'd not have grabbed it while on lol
👉👍😉🤗
What a great find! Loved your creative restoration with use of two power circuits, and the materials and method to create the shades. Beautiful! 💗
Thank you very much for watching. We are glad that you liked the result of our work.
Beautiful work.
Beautiful renovation. You both did a wonderful job.
We are very pleased, thank you for watching.
Beautifully done I must say. That chandelier looks much better than before and it shines like new. Excellent work.

Otro exito. Electricidad, pulido, decapante, montaje, Muchas tecnicas muy bien realizadas.
Me alegro, gracias por mirar.
The bright brass is beautiful.
You two never cease to impress me. The mechanical work was above the rest. The electrical work was a vast improvement over what you started with. Manufacturing the new shades sur0rised me. I have never seen seamless work done like that before. As always another thought provoking video. Outstanding work! .
Wow, I'm so pleased Steve. Thanks for watching :)
What an amazing restoration! Absolutely beautiful work 💜
Thank you. Many times. I'm glad you liked the chandelier.
Beautifully done!
Thank you very much.
It looks beautiful. I love old lamps as they have a quality we don't see in today's lamps, and your restoration definitely made that quality shine.
Many thanks for the lovely comment, David. Have a nice day :)
Beautiful! Great job!
That's our pleasure, thank you for watching.
Spectacular work!
Thank you very much for watching.
Lindo trabalho. Parabéns!
Lindo trabalho de restauração. Parabéns!
Another Phoenix rising from the ashes at the hands of a very talented artisan. Judging from the hardware which seems to fairly modern, this treasure is not as old as some of your previous restorations. I am especially impressed with how easy it was to disconnect and re-reconnect the wring. As always, the well researched history lesson adds additional value.
Yes I agree, this exhibit is apparently a newer replica.
great work love that finishing thank you
We are pleased, thank you. We are glad you liked our video.
Thank you for the video, that was a lot of work.. brass takes a lot to clean. Excellent job!!
Thank you for the recognition, have a nice day from the Czech Republic.
this is truly outstanding
What a beautiful restoration. So well done. Děkujeme Radku a Veronice, že se o to s námi všemi podělili.❤
Thank you so much :)
That is absolutely beautiful. Geez I didn't realize how many parts there were to a chandelier. ❤❤
Yes, anyway, the chandelier had a lot of parts. But in the end we managed to put it together. Thanks for watching.
Belleza total quedó esta lámpara 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 abrazos desde Uruguay
Gracias Olga, estamos muy contentos. Saludos desde la República Checa.

Beautiful restoration. The brass absolutely glistens. I would never have figured out how to restore the shades, but you did a wonderful job. Thank you, and happy Easter to all.
Thank you very much Pat. We are glad that you liked the chandelier.
That is a beautiful restoration and rewiring of that elegant brass chandelier. Congratulations, and thank you for sharing the video.

Beautiful!!
Thank you so much :)
So fun to watch. Great job as always!
We are very happy about that. Thank you for watching and greetings from the Czech Republic.
gorgeous!
Thank you very much for watching.
I often disagree with polishing patina away. In this case the result was clearly the right choice. Also, your method of replacing the fabric was brilliant.
So I'm happy twice, thanks for watching.
Wow what a beautiful piece 🥰
Thank you Eva :)
Stylishly renovated. It was a fancy lamp. Looks like it's hung in some church or in a castle maybe, or a big mansion. I'm just guessing
Тоже подумал что это церковный светильник !
I don't know the origin, but it will look beautiful in a beautiful museum :) Thanks for watching Jerka :)
Доброго вам дня что так редко выходят ваши ролики ? Каждый раз жду с нетерпением ваше видео👍👍👍👍👍🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿
Спасибо, к сожалению, обновление и видео займут некоторое время, поэтому я стараюсь выпускать по одному хотя бы раз в 14 дней :)
Very cool chandelier. I worked in a church several years ago, that had a chandelier on a crank. It weighed about half a ton. It was a chore to crank that thing up and down. Enjoyed the video.
Wow, that would be difficult to renovate.
Radek and Verônica, congratulations on the restoration of this chandelier, it looks like gold. A hug, Happy Easter.
Thanks for watching Jose Luiz :)
That was superb Radek and another interesting bit of history from Veronika.
Thanks for watching my friend. We are glad that you are still with us :)
Great job on that chandelier, looks like made of pure gold! And great job by the Czech company that made the dragon lamp, have to look it up! Ingenious work on the plastic welding also... My Dad restored a table lamp when I was a kid, he used to punch all the lamp shade pieces along the edges and used flat leather strips in a shoelace style to keep the pieces together, that came out nice also. Thanks a lot for the video and Happy Easter to all of you! 👍👍👍
Thanks for watching Horst :)
Realmente um trabalho de recuperação excelente. Parabéns
Obrigado por assistir. Ficamos felizes que tenha gostado do resultado do nosso trabalho.
That is Absolutely Beautiful!! Great Restoration!!👍
We are pleased Charity, thank you for watching.
So shiny 😃 The new shades go perfectly
Thank you very much for watching.
BEAUTIFUL job🥰❤️
Thank you very much for watching.
Absolutely amazing ❤❤
Thank you very much
This was the most amazing transformation and the best I have seen yet. This would be a very valuable sell for you, especially if someone was renovating and putting in items that belonged to that period. You made something ugly into something beautiful.
Thank you very much for your kind words, we are glad that you liked the chandelier.
Quedo resplandeciente,es muy hermosa excelente trabajo
Muchas gracias por mirar :)
It is very nice when you include notes of what you are doing, like in this video. Not that I use these as instructional videos or anything, but even as I watch it for relaxation I like these additional bits of info
👍😉
Bellissimo lavoro ❤❤❤ Complimenti 👏👏👏
Siamo molto contenti, grazie per la visione.
Fantastic work, it looks gorgeous. I want one in my house!
Wow, thank you very much for the compliment.
That was very interesting. I really enjoyed the history. Thank you.
