Pair of 18th Century Louis XVI Period Gilt-Bronze Figures of Maidens as Lamps

About the Item

A magnificent pair of antique French Louis XVI period, 18th century gilt bronze and white Carrara marble figures of maidens mounted as Lamps. This magnificent pair of gilt bronze figures portray two beautiful maidens each holding the candle arm/Torcheres. The bronze was impressively cast, hand-chiselled then Mercury gilt, all in pristine original condition. With majestic craftsmanship, the beautiful dresses on each maiden drape delicately down their bodies, like soft silk flowing through the wind. The base is a spectacular hand-cut white Carrara marble and perched atop is a beautifully handcrafted ormolu rim with acanthus leaves placed throughout. The circular marble where the maidens are perched on have been fluted and incised with gorgeous vine-like flowers draping downward to the base. France, circa 1780.
