About the Item

Fine pair of George III carved and giltwood candelabra in the manner of Thomas Chippendale the Younger, the four candle sockets with ribbed sides, the central arm with corkscrew shaft having later drip pan, the three side lights with fire gilt brass arms with foliate and scroll decoration, the central urn with ribbing and fluted stem standing on later gadrooned socle plinth bases. England, circa 1780. The ribbed brass candle sockets on this pair are identical to those on a pair of documented candelabra by Thomas Chippendale Jr. (illustrations 199 and 201 in Judith Goodison's "The Life and Work of Thomas Chippendale Junior" Philip Wilson Publishers 2017). The carving of central urns and honeysuckle motif stems relates to several known examples by Chippendale Sr. and Jr.

Pair of Rococo Bronze and Gilt Sconces
By Jacques Caffieri
Located in Greenwich, CT
Very fine pair of gilt and patinated bronze two light sconces depicting Mars holding two branches, in the manner of Jacques Caffieri. Jacques Caffieri was one of France's most important bronze casters during the reign of Louis XV. A nephew of Charles Le Brun, the chief designer and painter to Louis XIV, Caffieri had great talent of his own, so it isn't surprising he became sculpteur et ciseleur ordinaire des bâtiments du roi (Sculptor, Bronze Caster and Chaser for the King's Palaces). In 1740, Caffieri's wife bought a royal privilege--a form of permit from the king--which allowed them to gild bronze as well as cast it within the same workshop; these two processes would usually have been done by separate businesses.
