Antique Pair Of French Napoleon III Gilt Bronze Putti Candelabras Ca. 1870

About the Item

Elevate your interior with this exquisite pair of 19th-century French gilt bronze candelabras, a magnificent representation of the opulence and artistry of the Napoleon III era. Dating to circa 1870, these richly detailed pieces feature charming putti figures—classical cherubs beautifully cast in bronze—each gracefully supporting ornate, multi-arm candelabra branches. Crafted with superb attention to detail, the candelabras are finished in luxurious gilded bronze (ormolu), giving them a warm, golden glow that enhances their intricate Rococo-style flourishes. From the delicate curls of the putti’s hair to the scrolling acanthus leaves and floral motifs, every element speaks of fine French craftsmanship and timeless elegance. From an important private French collection. Free international shipping on this piece.

Located in West Palm Beach, FL
Pair of Napoleon III Patinated Bronze Patina 5-Light Candelabra France Circa 1870s A exquisite pair of Napoleon III patinated bronze candelabra, crafted in France during the 1870s. Standing at an impressive 30 inches tall, these candelabra are a true testament to the opulence and craftsmanship of the era.

This intricate sculpture showcases the attention to detail and artistic skill of the bronze sculptor. Above the sculpture, a five-light bobeche candelabrum adds a touch of grandeur and elegance to the piece. Supported on a fluted column, the candelabra rest on triparte acanthus leaf and lion caryatids with paw feet.
