- Sconce consisting of a gilt bronze support and a patinated bronze allegorical figure of Fame, Empire style work circa 1860.
- This sconce consists of a gilt bronze support; a wall section decorated at its ends with scrolled stems; a structure in the form of a gilt bronze scroll adorned with numerous floral motifs (foliage bases, florets, palmettes). Standing on the latter, a winged female allegorical figure in patinated bronze draped in the antique style, a universally renowned figure, stands on a globe. This sculpture holds at arm's length, like a caryatid, a gilt bronze plant crown serving as a support for three cornucopia-shaped light arms. The latter are finely chiseled with plant motifs.
- This candelabra is distinguished by its exploration of material effects with a variation in finishing techniques; The polished surface of the globe adds shine and stands out more than the matte bronze of the base. Combined with the patinated bronze of the Renown, this wall light offers a pleasing play of contrasting colors and light.
- Good condition, formerly electrified.
- Dimensions: Height: 61.5 cm, Width: 17.5 cm, Depth: 25 cm
