About the Item

A Pair of Gilt and Dark-Patinated Bronze Candlesticks – French Directoire, Late 18th Century An exquisite pair of French gilt and dark-patinated bronze candlesticks, crafted during the late Directoire period at the end of the 18th century. These candlesticks are characterized by a restrained and balanced design language, where the architectural base rises into a slender tapered shaft adorned with finely detailed, geometric decoration. The ornamentation is subtle yet refined, enhancing the overall elegance without overpowering the form. The contrast between the warm gilding and the dark accents creates a sober and timeless expression, reflecting the classical ideals of the era. A truly beautiful and sophisticated example of French craftsmanship from the transitional period between the 18th and 19th centuries Wear consistent with age and use
