Granda has been commissioned to create the Blessed Sacrament chandelier for St. Louis of the French Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. The lamp, 2.5 meters high, is an original design by the architectural firm Conrad Schmitt Studios, who commissioned the project.
It is a unique piece, full of symbolism. It has been made in golden brass and different types of marble. All the pieces are new handmade pieces, exclusively for this project.
It is decorated with nine carvings of saints, about 25 cm high, made of Carrara marble corresponding to:
Virgin with the Child
St. Helena
Saint Louis King of France
Saint Joan of Arc
Saint Anne with her daughter
St. John the Evangelist
St. Michael the Archangel
St. Paul St. Francis of Assisi.
It also has nine carvings of Solomonic columns in coral red marble, approximately 20 cm high and 3 cm in diameter; seven carvings of flames in limestone 7.5 cm high, a ball with a coiled serpent in green onyx, representing the world and, finally, at the base, a crown of thorns.
