About the Item

This pair of 19th-century French candelabra is made from dark patinated bronze and bright gilt bronze (ormolu). Each piece features a mythical creature, possibly a dragon or a chimera, standing upright and holding five candle holders with elegant, leafy arms. The mix of dark bronze and gold gives these candelabra a rich, eye-catching look. The bases are finely detailed with scrolls and classic French design, adding to their charm and decorative appeal. A striking example of French craftsmanship from the 1800s, these candelabra would make a stunning addition to a mantel, dining table, or entryway.
