Pair of Important Gilt Bronze Candelabra with Cut Crystal Arms, 1780s

About the Item

Add timeless elegance to your collection with this extraordinary pair of antique crystal candelabra. Crafted with intricate attention to detail, these pieces feature beautifully faceted crystal arms and pendants, creating a dazzling interplay of light. The bases are made of gilt bronze, radiating a warm golden hue that complements the brilliance of the crystal. The patina of the bases is wonderful and untouched. Each base is adorned with inset paintings by renowned 18th-century artist Piat-Joseph Sauvage (1744–1818), celebrated for his neoclassical style. The paintings depict classical figures in graceful poses, adding an artistic narrative to these luxurious pieces. Encased within the hexagonal gilt bronze frames, the paintings are bordered by delicate beading and ornate embellishments that enhance their sophisticated charm. This pair is perfect for making a dramatic statement in a dining room, living space, or gallery. Whether displayed as functional candelabra or decorative objects d’art, these pieces represent a harmonious blend of fine artistry and superb craftsmanship, embodying the neoclassical aesthetic of the late 18th century. Possibly made by William Parker, England.
