    Pair of "à boule" quiver candlesticks, decorated with round feet, water leaves and gadroons, balls, smooth shafts, palmette collars and gadrooned bobèches. Chased bronze, gilded with fine gold, Empire period, early 19th century, circa 1810.

    Our pair of candlesticks is the model created by Ravrio around 1808 and supplied in several examples to the Mobilier Impérial for the Château de Fontainebleau around 1810 (salon of apartment no. 4 in the Cour des Princes, rooms in apartments 3 and 4 in the same courtyard, salon of apartment no. 4 in the Ministers' wing, see Jean Pierre Samoyault Pendules et bronzes d'ameublement entres sous le premier Empire [au Chateau de Fontainebleau]: the model is listed at no. 184).

    André Antoine Ravrio (1759-1814), along with Thomire and Claude Galle, was one of the most important bronzemakers of the Empire, and supplier to Emperor Napoleon I.

    Very elegant model, composed of 9 independent pieces (the more, the higher the quality), gilded with fine gold. Beautiful, sober and finely chiseled decoration, ideal for completing an Empire collection with a model of "Mobilier Impérial" quality.

    They are in perfect condition, no missing parts, no distortion, very fresh gilding (re-gilded in the 20th century).
