Chinese Bronze Dragons Candlesticks Imperial Style

About the Item

Very decorative Chinese contemporary large bronze "Dragons" candlesticks; with relief design of dragons chasing pearls. With a straight foot supporting a bell-shaped base surmounted by a tall conical shaft fitted with a large lower tray with an everted rim and a small upper tray with a central pricket, the bell-shaped base cast in very high relief with two pairs of confronting five-clawed dragons contesting 'flaming pearls', their ridged spines twisting with the motion of their scaly bodies, the 'dragon' motif repeated around the pillar and the exterior of each tray, the foot similarly decorated save for a horizontal panel with a six-character reign mark in relief. Rich chocolate brown patina finish. Circa 1950, after the antique Imperial style. Very heavy cast bronze.
