Pair of candlesticks in gilt bronze, 19th century
About the Item
This exquisite pair of candlesticks exemplifies the refined aesthetic and masterful craftsmanship of the Louis XVI style in 19th-century France. Crafted from a combination of gilded bronze and malachite, these candlesticks showcase a harmonious blend of form and function, typical of the period.
The elegant form of each candlestick is characterized by a slender columnar shaft, likely decorated with delicate fluting or reeding. The shaft supports a circular base, possibly adorned with a delicate floral or geometric motif. Atop the column, a beautifully sculpted urn-shaped cup rests, intended to hold a candle.
The base of each candlestick is likely embellished with a square of malachite, a luxurious and richly colored stone that adds a touch of opulence. The malachite base may be further adorned with gilded bronze mounts, featuring intricate motifs of acanthus leaves, floral swags, or possibly even small sculptural elements.
Key Features:
Louis XVI Style: The candlesticks embody the elegance and restraint of the Louis XVI style, a period celebrated for its neoclassical influences and refined aesthetic.
Materials: The combination of gilded bronze and malachite creates a visually striking and luxurious effect, typical of high-end decorative objects from this period.
Intricate Details: The presence of delicate fluting, floral motifs, and possibly small sculptural elements demonstrates the exceptional skill of the artisans involved.
Decorative Potential: These candlesticks would make a stunning addition to any grand residence, serving as a centerpiece on a mantelpiece, console table, or as part of a larger display.
