About the Item

19th c., France, a pair of Louis XVI style gilt bronze candelabra. The upwardly tapering and chiseled column support rises from a square base. The column is surmounted by two candle cups issuing from arms decorated with fauna. The column is topped with the form of a flaming torch. The candle cups are decorated with swags. Both candelabra are unmarked. This is an unusual pair of gilt bronze candelabra particularly given the shape and nature of the central column. The overall combination of decorative elements results in a visually appealing pair of candelabra. Dimensions: 9"h x 7.5"w x 3.5"d Condition: Good/fair. Some light oxidation and finish wear surface consistent with age and use. Missing one element on one candle cup (see photographs). Shows well.

Located in Morristown, NJ
Late 19th c., France, a pair of Napoleon III gilt bronze and champlevé candelabra. Four neoclassical column supports are surmounted by five candle cups, on an enamel decorated plinth. Both are unmarked. The beautifully decorated square base is delicately referenced in the square elements under the candle cups and between the column supports.

Dimensions: 9.5"h x 9"squ Condition: Good, some areas of wear to gilding with spots of verdigris and wax residue. The enamel is well preserved.
