Pair of Louis XV Style Candlesticks, Modelled as Servant Monkeys

About the Item

There was a fashion for playful figures of monkeys in France in the early 18th century, known as Singerie. These, although old, are probably 19th century when the style was revived yet capture the spirit of the earlier models. Each figure, dressed in livery, supports a tray-based candlestick.
