Two Antique Rococo Style Gilt Bronze Candelabra

About the Item

These beautiful gilt bronze (ormolu) candelabra are designed in a Rococo style, after decorative arts of the Louis XV period (1715-1774). The candelabra display many characteristics of the Rococo style, including elegance, organic sinuosity and asymmetry. Each candelabra features three foliate curved arms which hold leafy drip-pans and capitals with sconces. Their stems are composed of twisting, serpentine leafy vines which spring from shaped bases. These bases stand on C-scrolls, on bun feet.

    This majestic pair of gilt and patinated bronze candelabra are designed in the Empire style, which was popularized under Napoleon I (1769-1821).

In furniture and the decorative arts, Imperial Roman motifs on the theme of war became increasingly fashionable, such as classical trophies, collections of weaponry and armour taken from a defeated enemy, and laurel wreaths, which were symbols of victory.

The patinated stems of the candelabra are decorated with gilt laurel leaf wreaths. Patinated sculptures of the Classical Roman figures Mars, the god of war, and Minerva, the goddess of wisdom and strategy in war, Stand next to the candelabra stems.
