They are suspended on each side, from the keystones of the arches, which are in the form of the prows of vessels. The jets of gas issue from the points of stars'. In the mid-19th century, as gas lighting caught on, branched ceiling fixtures called gasoliers (a portmanteau of gas and chandelier) were produced, and many candle chandeliers were converted.
