Faustig chandelier

Faustig chandelier

One of seven Faustig chandeliers in the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. This is one of the 'smaller' ones. The largest, the 9.5 ton world record (2007) chandelier in the main prayer hall, is reported to be the 3rd largest in the world. The chandeliers were made by the renowned Fautig Company in Germany, containing millions of Swarovski crystals, and took 2 years to complete. Abu Dhabi, UAE.

    You did an outstanding job capturing the lighting and incredibly small details in this photo. That is one colorful chandelier too. I have never seen one like that before.
