A pair of gilt bronze candlesticks resting on circular bases of veined gray marble.
The decoration demonstrates great finesse and a perfect mastery of the Neoclassical style: acanthus leaves, gadroons, and pearls adorn the various sections, while the fluted stems are embellished with sculpted rings. The candle holders, shaped like antique vases, are decorated with refined garlands, and the whole presents harmonious and perfectly symmetrical proportions.
France, 18th century
