About the Item

A stately and elegant pair of five-arm candelabras, crafted in solid brass and likely French in origin, dating to the late 19th century. These pieces capture the grandeur of neoclassical design with ornate flourishes, voluted arms, and a richly cast tripod base—each element speaking to the artistry and opulence of a bygone era. What sets this pair apart is the exceptional detailing—from the finely chased bobeches to the scrolling arms and lion paw feet. The candelabras are not simply decorative; they are functional architectural statements that bring height, drama, and history to any setting. Cast in solid brass, these candelabras are heavy, beautifully patinated, and radiate a timeless warmth. The style reflects a blend of French Rococo Revival and Neoclassical sensibilities—characterized by ornamental detailing, symmetry, and sculptural bases with leaf and scroll motifs. Antique lighting objects of this quality and scale are increasingly rare, especially as a matched pair. Their condition, craftsmanship, and versatility (as both functional lighting and sculptural décor) make them worthy investments. Whether used on a dining table, sideboard, or mantel, they lend instant sophistication and history to a space. They stand with quiet authority—substantial in weight, beautifully aged with a golden-bronze patina. The five arms gracefully arc outward, creating a sculptural silhouette when lit. The light flickers against the brass, casting warm, romantic shadows through the openwork base. This pair likely hails from France’s decorative arts boom in the Belle Époque era, when elaborate interiors, classical revival styles, and candlelit evenings were the standard in both city homes and country estates. These pieces reflect the craftsmanship of that moment—ornate but balanced, functional yet poetic.
