A monumental and highly decorative pair of 19th century large candelabra crafted in silvered bronze. These exceptional pieces are distinguished by their richly sculptural design and lavish rococo-inspired ornamentation. The central stem is composed of dynamically flowing acanthus leaves and naturalistic elements. Around the shaft appear finely modeled figurative scenes featuring playful putti (cherubs), grape clusters, and a lively dog, giving the composition a charming narrative quality. The sculptural depth and refined chasing demonstrate remarkable craftsmanship. At the top, the stem branches into an impressive crown with 13 candle arms, gracefully curved and decorated with elaborate foliate motifs. When lit, the candelabra create a spectacular display of light. With their impressive scale and sculptural presence, these candelabra function not only as lighting but also as true works of art, bringing grandeur and elegance to any interior.
France c. 1860
