About the Item
Elegant Pair of Karl Johan Candlesticks in Gilt and Dark-Patinated Brass, Sweden c. 1820s
A beautiful pair of Swedish candlesticks from the Karl Johan period — the Swedish interpretation of the Empire style — made around the 1820s. Crafted in gilt and dark-patinated brass, featuring richly decorated bases and elegant lyre-shaped central elements — a classical symbol of music and beauty, popular throughout the Empire aesthetic.
The design combines clean, symmetrical lines with fine relief and engraved details. The contrast between the bright gilding and the darker patina gives a refined appearance, characteristic of the period.
