Description :
gilt bronze, chiseled, white marble.
These beautiful 19th century candelabra have a beautiful antique-style columnar base with rudent fluting, on a base with a laurel torus and straight sides with striated reserves, the characters on the columns are probably Daphnis and Chloé, heroes of a story Greek written in antiquity.
Pensive Chloe is seated on a sheaf of wheat and hanging Daphnis eats a bunch of grapes; a quiver on the ground symbolizes their romance.
The branches growing around them become the 6 sconces in a charming vegetal jumble.
Note the quality of carving in the flowery hair of the nymph, for example.

good condition, beautiful gilding, beautiful marble patina.
