About the Item

Pair of Early 19th Century French Gilt Bronze Acanthus Leaf Candlesticks A sophisticated pair of early 19th century French gilt bronze candlesticks, richly ornamented in the neoclassical style. Each candlestick features a fluted column shaft rising to a wide foliate bobeche adorned with finely detailed acanthus leaves. The lower section is decorated with ornate repoussé patterns and rests upon a base supported by three boldly modeled paw feet, adding a sense of grandeur and stability. The triangular plinth base is subtly curved and enhances the sculptural quality of the form. With their warm gilded patina and classical design, these candlesticks are exemplary of refined French Empire decorative arts and ideal for formal or historically inspired interiors.
