A girandole () is an ornamental branched candle holder consisting of several lights that may be on a stand or mounted on the wall, either by itself or attached to a mirror. Girandole has been used to refer to a number of different objects and designs; it originally referred to a form of firework, but was adopted in France in the mid-17th century as a term for a luxurious object for lighting.
