AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This pair of silver candelabras from the first half of the 20th century faithfully embodies the ornamental and elegant spirit of the Louis XV style. With three curved arms that gracefully unfold from a central column, each piece features a fluid, harmonious silhouette, inspired by the organic and asymmetrical forms typical of French Rococo.

The casting and molding work reveals meticulous attention to detail: volutes, acanthus and vegetal motifs intertwine on the arms and the base, evoking the refined courtly elegance of the eighteenth century reinterpreted in a modern key. The silver finish, still bright, lends a ceremonial and sophisticated air, while the light patina in some areas suggests its age without compromising its condition.

Mounted on rounded and sturdy bases, these candelabras not only fulfill their lighting function but also present themselves as decorative objects of high aesthetic value. Their presence on a table, console, or fireplace adds a touch of distinction, ideal for classic or eclectic settings that value history and applied art.

Overall, it is a pair that combines the nobility of materials, decorative richness, and formal balance, worthy of a collection that appreciates French taste and period craftsmanship.

Certified shipping and good packaging.
