About the Item
From our Decorative collection, we are pleased to offer this pair of French Louis XIV style ormolu candelabra by Henry Dasson, dated 1880.
Each candelabrum is cast in gilt bronze (ormolu) with a central hexagonal column supporting six scrolling candle arms, arranged in a tiered formation around a baluster stem. The columns are richly detailed with alternating panels showing classical objects, animals and scrolling foliage, culminating in a flamed finial. The lower sections of each column are mounted on shaped bases decorated with stylised shells and acanthus leaves, designed to provide visual weight and support to the structure. Both pieces are finely cast with exceptional surface detail, retaining their original fire gilding and fitted with the original candle sconces. Each candelabrum is signed Henry Dasson to the foot and dated 1880, confirming the maker and period. Henry Dasson (1825 to 1896) was a leading Parisian bronzier and ébéniste, celebrated for his refined interpretations of 17th and 18th century French decorative arts. His work was exhibited at the Exposition Universelle and remains highly regarded for its technical quality and design.
A striking and substantial pair of 19th century French ormolu candelabra by a major maker, offering decorative scale and historical importance.
