About the Item

Stunning pair of so called Girandoles, made in France around 1810, in the famous Empire period. The stepped pedestals are beautifully designed with masks and garland décor. On each of them are an antique-style female figure made in bronze (typical is the drapery and the head of hair), these hold an amphora-like vessel from which acantus tendrils grow, each of which merges into two candle spouts and flowerbuds. In a special detail design are the candle spouts in the floral decoration. The base and upper tendrils are fire-gilded. Measurements approx.: height 16,54 in - 42 cm, width 9,45 in - 24 cm, depth 3,94 in - 10 cm This particular pair of candlesticks is a rare original of the French Empire period, which are still in impressive original condition, with charming patina. A fantastic eye-catcher in your interior.

Two Early 19th Century French Empire Gilt Bronze Candelabra
Located in London, GB
These magnificent candelabra were cast entirely of gilt bronze in the French Empire period of the early 19th century.

The figures, one male and one female, are shown draped in swathed clothing, with the male figure depicted holding a quill in his other hand, whilst the female figure clutches a delicate bouquet of flowers. The figures stand upon circular bases, set onto ovoid vases which featured fluted details and central bands of laurel leaf motifs. The vases themselves stand on undulating roundels formed of acanthus leaves, which are further set atop square-form plinths.
