About the Item

This very unusual candelabra made in France combines the elegance of the Louis XV period with the modernism so prevalent in France at the time. Constructed of a colored marble sphere set atop a gilded bronze base the sphere issuing four candle arms in the form of leaf-covered stems ending in Tulip shaped candle cups. Each stem is of a slightly different height and form making the whole look like a floral arrangement. The color of the marble is a mellow old brown cream with colored accents at the socle and at the middle of the sphere. The bronze has a well worn mellow color in keeping with the rest of the piece.
