About the Item
Offering a vintage pair of Large 14" patinated bronze book matching candlesticks, circa Mid 20th Century. These large and heavy candlesticks depict two walking frogs dressed in Victorian style attire holding a top hat in one hand and a green lily pad in the other with a spike to hold the candle. They are sporting a hand painted burnt orange gentleman's coat trimmed in gold with low rise pants and boots. The frogs have no vest and show their protruding stomach and belly button. A humorous example of antique whimsical trending animalia.
These candlesticks are heavy, weighing approximately six pounds each. As seen in the last few photos, these candlesticks are quite old and are most likely a bronze-like cast with an espresso-colored bronze patina. They are filled with a cement-like material giving them even more weight and stability.
A rare and fanciful unique book matching pair of large standing frogs which are very reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland. Perfect for a large mantelpiece in any luxury high end home.
GOOD VINTAGE CONDITION. Very minor paint loss. Felt bottoms will be included in the sale.
SIZE:
Each frog measures:
14" high
