About the Item
An elegant and refined pair of French Louis XVI style ormolu-mounted biscuit porcelain lamps. This exquisite pair of French lamps is crafted in the Louis XVI style, showcasing the harmonious pairing of unglazed white biscuit porcelain and finely cast gilt bronze mounts. Each urn-shaped body is encircled by a continuous ormolu frieze in high relief, depicting a lively procession of putti and floral garlands—a joyful motif that imbues the pieces with movement and charm. The mounts, with their intricate beaded borders and foliate accents, exemplify the superb craftsmanship associated with the finest Parisian ateliers.
The vertically fluted porcelain tapers gracefully into a spreading base adorned with acanthus leaf ormolu, while the neck features a delicate spiral-twist motif leading to a domed lid edged in gadrooned bronze. Ornate upright handles rise from the shoulders, echoing natural forms with their foliate curves. Each piece rests on a stepped circular base with stiff-leaf and rope-twist detailing, offering both balance and grandeur.
Celebrating the neoclassical aesthetic that flourished under Louis XVI, these lamps reflect the elegant restraint and decorative richness of the period. The striking contrast between the matte porcelain and radiant fire-gilt bronze enhances their visual impact, a hallmark of luxury French design. These urns were thoughtfully adapted into lamps ensuring their continued beauty and utility.
