Description

This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

With a rare flight, these two arms of light in bronze and gilded wood, two candles with carved caryatid heads, are remarkable for their originality and their decorative aspect of lightness and refined elegance. The volutes in gilded copper enroute which I think are hollow (possibility of electrification) starting from a flange to be fixed on the wall with two holes in the stylized shape of a leaf allow them to be arranged in the decor. Initially in a castle in west-central France, on each side of a tapestry, they can easily accompany in symmetry a beautiful mirror or a painting. Due to their originality and the quality of gilding execution, sculpture of caryatids and leaves of water affixed to their metal "stems", with the swirling movement of the arms, carving of the bobêches typical of this period with a frieze of fine laurel leaves and contained form in patinated bronze, everything gives these two pieces an important and airy element of the decor. In good condition and having reached us they could still provide valuable services for unique pieces that we do not see in everyone.... Up for grabs
