Tavern on the Green’s twinkling lights have gone dark, but now its spectacular chandeliers can hang from your ceiling.

The contents of the famed Central Park eatery, including 59 chandeliers, are going under the hammer next week.

The centerpiece of the sale, a 19th century, emerald-colored chandelier that hangs in the Crystal Room and was made in Austria for India’s Maharaja of Udaipur, is expected to fetch $100,000 to $300,000.

A Baccarat crystal chandelier is estimated to fetch $50,000 to $200,000.

There’s also a menagerie of topiaries, including shrubs that depict a pair of kissing swans, a cat, a rabbit, and a giraffe. A 14-foot-high King Kong topiary — who got a kiss from actress Fay Wray when he was unveiled — could bring $10,000 to $50,000.

Guernsey’s auction house will sell the items for three days, from next Wednesday until Jan. 15.
