By J. Pradier
Located in Vancouver, British Columbia
A beautifully cast pair of French 19th century neoclassical patinated figural bronze nine arm candelabra after a model by Jaen Jacques Pradier They are signed J.

Born in Geneva in 1792 in Switzerland, Pradier was the son of a Protestant family from Toulouse.

By Mathurin Moreau
