Charming candlestick in gilded and patinated bronze signed Ferville – Suan. It features a cherub carrying an amphora forming a candle holder in finely chiseled gilded bronze. The chubby angel is winged and wears a blindfold. It is an allegory of the famous expression: “love is blind”.
On the terrace, a beautiful dove, symbol of love and peace, takes flight.
Charles Georges Ferville-Suan is a French sculptor born in Le Mans (Sarthe) in 1847 and died in the same city in 1925.
