Torchiere Statue representing a Nubian in Carved Polychrome Wood on its base, in the Venetian style.
Standing on a rock, the right leg resting slightly backwards, the Subject holds a Golden Metal vine terminating in a five-branched Candelabra of Light, in working order.
The Character wears the physical characteristics denoting his African origin, by his black complexion, his frizzy hair and his full lips. Her Moorish-style costume, from the headdress to the turban encircling her waist, is finely executed.
You will appreciate the contrast of the color Black with the brilliance of Gold and Silver with reddish reflections. Icon of the colonial era, this Nubian Torchiere Holder will bring an exotic touch to your interior, while fulfilling its function as a light if necessary.
