A Fine Pair of 19th C. Neoclassical Style Gilt Bronze Cassolettes / Candlesticks

About the Item

A very fine pair of Neoclassical Revival gilt bronze cassolettes / candlesticks after a design by Matthew Boulton (1728-1809). Both finely cast & richly gilded amphora shaped bodies decorated with neoclassical elements of ram’s heads & bellflower swags, and fitted with removable socle shaped tops. Both tops feature the ability to convert into candleholders when reversed & returned back into their respective bodies. Raised overall on fluted columns issuing from laurel wreath mounts, atop richly gilded squared & stepped bases on turned supports. Both are finely cast to the point of each of the eight supports indented with a series of small dots - numbering from one to four, indicating their dedicated positions to be mounted on each of the two bases. Both remain in extremely good overall condition, and are priced competitively in comparison to similar examples in the marketplace.
