help with a vintage chandelier

hello can anyone help me please this is my first post.I recently got a very large chandelier and was told it was they think from spain the large brass celing rose hook which is also pictured with the large drop from the bottom of the chandelier says made in spain but i am not sure is matches with the main chandelier.I want to finish it off and get it rewired as many of the crystals do not i think belong to it i have spare ones and i really would like to know its age and if anyone can tell me where they think it comes from and the age so i can try and match it with another one, it is 85cm in diameter (2.80 feet) and 80cm high, not including chain.it has 6 lights inside it and a further 6 ladies holding 6 more lights on the outer of the basket and large crystal drops, it was taken out of large country home.It seems to be brass /bronze as it is going green in places i have tried to clean a bit to make sure it is not just metal and is very heavy janice

 

Id guess its a 1960s vintage "hollywood regency" style.

 

That's a neat looking chandelier but I'd hate to have to wash all them crystals once they get dusty/grimy.

 

Hi Rayo,
You would have hated mine. It was 5ft tall and 6ft wide. It had 26 lights. Each light had a large patterned glass shade. There were 95 ft of crystal beads, 108 large glass prisms and 210 5" hanging ones. Thank goodness I had 12 ft ceilings. I washed it twice a year. I would start 6AM by taking it apart that would take 2 hours.
Then washing all the hurricane shades and then washing the glass arms and center post. Tired yet......? then polishing the chain. After everything was washed and dried it was 3PM and time to reassemble the beast. Sometimes I stayed up until 10 PM to finish but usually left it until the next morning. Once I decided to use the new and wonderful spray. Just put a cloth under it and spray this "cleaner" on all the parts and the dust would fall off onto the cloth. Ya RIGHT all the dirty spray collected in the candle cups and every well else. Spent 20 bucks on the three cans of spray and twice as long as usual to wash the thing. I do miss the dang thing it was beautiful and very Hollywood Regency.

I wouldn't doubt it of Spanish manufacturer. Chandeliers of this type traditionally very popular and still being made. Yours looks 1960s. I would consider it French Directoire-inspired in style.
