About the Item
Pair of six-light silvered bronze candelabra attributed to Christofle
French, 19th Century
Height 65cm, diameter 37cm
This superb pair of candelabra are crafted in the opulent Rococo style. Standing atop three trunk-style feet, the bases feature impressive openwork grapevine decoration, which is mirrored by the similar openwork that adorns the very top of each piece.
Forming the main part of the stem is a sculptural putto, who holds a fruit basket on top of his head. One putto faces slightly to the left, and the other to the right – the candelabra are otherwise identical. The putti are carved with highly impressive verisimilitude, that speaks to the extraordinary craftsmanship.
From the top of the fruit basket protrude six, vine-wrapped arms, that are capped with bell-shaped capitals to hold the candles. The very top of each candelabra is surmounted by a flower-cluster finial.
The candelabra are attributed to Christofle, the renowned French silver manufactory. As such, this impressive pair highlights the excellent silverware pieces being made in France during the 19th century.

- Pair of Empire Six-Light Candelabra Attributed to Escalier De Cristal circa 1819By L'Escalier de CristalLocated in Brighton, West SussexA remarkable and highly important pair of Empire gilt-bronze and cut-crystal six-light candelabra attributed to Escalier De Cristal De Paris. French, circa 1819. This exceptional pair of candelabra can almost certainly be attributed to the workshops of l'Escalier de Cristal de Paris. They relate in particular to a dressing table and chair, now in the collection of the Louvre, which formed part of a toilette suite that was exhibited by L'Escalier de Cristal at the 1819 Paris exhibition of the Produits de l'industrie. The present candelabra may very likely have been made as part of this suite. In 'Baccarat: La Legende du Cristal', it states: "A l'Exposition des produits de l'industrie française de 1819, Mme Désarnaud présente une toilette, une cheminée, deux grands candélabres, deux tables, une grande pendule et plusieurs vases, en cristal et bronze...Category
