18th Century Pair of Wall lamp in Bronze 18K Gold from Delatour Lacarriere

About the Item

This beautiful pair of sconces is a re-edition of a model of the famous Parisian bronze maker Delatour Lacarrière. Lacarrière creates in 1825 a factory at 3 bis, rue Sainte- Elisabeth (Paris, France). Simple craftsman, he specializes and excels in the application of bronze in lighting devices. In 1834, he received an honorable mention, in 1839, a bronze medal and in 1844, a silver medal for a large triangular candelabra, prefiguring the one presented at the Universal Exhibition in London in 1862. He also participated in the design of the chandelier for the Queen's Theatre in London. From 1851 to 1870, he changed his company name several times. Lacarrière, Delatour et Cie (active in 1870) cast and chiseled most of the lamp posts, candelabras and chandeliers of the Paris Opera, including the one in the auditorium, designed by Charles Garnier, the architect of the Opera, and modeled by Corboz. At the 1878 World's Fair, the catalog reminds us that "their exhibition shows great skill and a very pure taste in lighting bronzes intended for private homes". Finally, we owe them the fourteen monumental candelabras of the Alexander III bridge in Paris; a real tour de force at the time, since the largest of these pieces weighs 667 Kgs, for a height of 4.50 m and a diameter of 4.70 m We have one pair of wall lamps in stock however we can produce them made to measure and in other finishes such as 18k gold, 24k gold, silver, nickel, black nickel (our any bespoke finish). Our Company may also customize sizes or make any modifications on original design.
