About the Item

These exceptional Louis XVI style torchiere candelabras are a testament to the enduring appeal of Neoclassical design. The juxtaposition of the darker, patinated bronze cherubs with the gleaming, 24-karat gold-plated surfaces creates a captivating interplay of light and shadow, highlighting the meticulous detail of each sculpted form. The cherubs, rendered with a classical sensibility, appear to effortlessly support the richly ornamented vase, which itself showcases the skilled craftsmanship of the chiseled brass. The five elegantly curving arms, including the prominent central one, provide a balanced and majestic silhouette, their palm-leaf detailing adding a touch of ancient Roman grandeur. Crowned with delicate glass flames, these candelabras would have cast a warm and inviting glow in the opulent salons of the past. As significant decorative objects, they not only illuminate a space but also serve as tangible links to a sophisticated era of artistic excellence, making them highly desirable acquisitions for those who appreciate the beauty and history inherent in fine antiques.

Ormolu and Patina Bronez Candelabras
Located in Warsaw, PL
These are a pair of gilded candelabras inspired by the Louis XVI style-a style originating from France. The main shaft of the candelabras are constructed from female statues. Unlike the rest of the gilded parts of the candelabra, the women are made from patinated bronze and seems to be standing on one leg while holding up the candelabras’ arms, representing the intense vitality and brilliant beauty of women. At the feet of two young women holding lamps are soft and flexible waves, exuding strength and health, honoring the beauty of the young woman. By taking a closer look you will see that there are five arms radiating in all directions. In Western culture, the number 5 symbolizes origin, adaptability, adventure, love of freedom and diversity. The lamp base is constructed with a quadrilateral support with Acanthus inspired feet, which are classic motifs and delicately sculpted leaves. The combination of gold and bronze creates the subtle and rich tone to it, giving it true antique touch...
