A chandelier with three branches comprising a disk-shaped ceiling mount, and a descending chain connecting to a central stem, from the bottom of which protrude three branches having the shape of the bottom half of a circle. These branches are placed at equal distances from each other, ie. at 120 degrees to each other (60 degrees in FIGS. 7 and 10). At the top and bottom of the central stem, there are reel-shaped elements; the chain is attached to the top element, and said branches are attached to the bottom element. The central stem comprises four columns: one in the center, and one for each branch (one for every second branch in FIGS. 7 and 10). Beside each of the columns for the branches, a wavy segment or portion is attached, made of thinner material than that of the columns. This wavy segment or portion runs from the bottom reel-shaped element to the top element, the top of each segment or portion curved outwards in a spiral-like manner. A substantially 3/4 spherical mounting for cone-shaped lightbulbs is located at the end of each branch. In FIGS. 7 and 10, a frustum right circular cone-shapes lampshade covers each lightbulb. An ornamental segment or portion extends from the bottom reel-shaped element of the stem to each of the mountings, forming a substantially convex configuration at the center between the stem and the mounting, and curved inwards at the mounting in a spiral-like manner.
