Set of French Gilt Metal and Crystal Girandole Candelabra with Bear Motif

About the Item

Rococo girandoles composed of gilt metal with stepped marble bases and etched lead-crystal prism decoration (ca. late 19th Century, France). The centerpiece candelabra features three branching arms accommodating three candles, while the smaller two each hold one candle, all featuring a "two bears with beehive" motif. Good age / natural patina to the gilt; there are a few losses to the edges of the prisms, as shown (relatively minor, given the age). Large: H: 15.25" x L: 14.5" x D: 3.5" Two Small: H: 13.5" x L: 6.63" x D: 3.5".
