About the Item

This pair of magnificent torcheres are of the finest quality carved wood, gilding and faux marble painting. Each are comprised of a giltwood cherub or putto figure sitting on faux marble double bases holding aloft five scrolling giltwood candle arms, now with outside electification. The columns on which the figures stand/sit are in gilt and painted faux marble and a second slightly larger rectangular base has been added (likely to increase their height) and is painted in a different colour faux marble. The figures are identical in size but are slightly different in their orientation possibly suggesting that they may have been made for specific locations in a palace or church.
