About the Item

This elegant pair of candelabras exemplifies the grandeur and refined aesthetic of the Napoleon III period in France. The candelabras showcase a harmonious blend of classical influences and contemporary craftsmanship, characteristic of this era. Design Highlights: Figureal Sculpture: Each candelabra is surmounted by a bronze figure, likely representing a young boy or putto. The figures are delicately modeled, adding a touch of playfulness and elegance to the design. Ornate Bronzework: The candelabras are lavishly embellished with ormolu mounts, featuring finely cast and chiseled details. The design incorporates scrolling acanthus leaves, floral motifs, and possibly mythological figures, creating a sense of opulence and dynamism. Floral Elements: The incorporation of stylized flowers, likely roses, adds a touch of natural beauty and elegance to the design. Malachite Bases: The candelabras rest on substantial bases crafted from malachite, a semi-precious stone known for its deep green color and intricate veining. The malachite bases add a luxurious touch and complement the bronzework beautifully. Style and Period: The design elements, including the figureal sculptures, the use of malachite, and the ornate bronzework, are indicative of the Napoleon III style. This period, spanning from 1852 to 1870, saw a revival of interest in classical forms and a focus on luxury and grandeur. The style was heavily influenced by the military achievements of Napoleon III and the opulence of the court. Overall Impression: This pair of candelabras is a captivating set that would make a stunning addition to any grand salon or library. They represent a sophisticated blend of artistry and craftsmanship, reflecting the opulence and refinement of the Napoleon III era.
