Description

Pair of candlesticks; France, Empire period, c. 1805. Chiseled bronze, gilded with mercury and burnished. Measurements: 47 x 22 x 12,5 cm (x2). Lot consists of two gilded bronze candlesticks that have the same design. Both are arranged on a circular base, adorned with a chain of vegetal motifs that runs around the perimeter and gives way to an interior with details of overlapping synthetic leaves that rise adopting a flared shape. The shaft separated from the foot by a circular structure has been designed as a classic column. This area is richly adorned with a stylized leaf base, fluted body and capital. Finally, the zone of the wick takes the form of a fluted column with a lighter located on each side and the central one higher. The ornamental motifs are reminiscent of examples of the decorative art of the period, but reinterpreted to suit the aesthetic taste of the nineteenth century.
