AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
An extraordinary ancient pair of church candlesticks, probably altar-related, both right and left, in solid hardwood from the 1700s of Italian manufacture, specifically Florentine.
The candlesticks are both very old, presenting with the typical patina of time, gold leaf and with trompe l'oeil green English marble finishes.
Ancient restorations and touch-ups can be observed.
There are signs of ancient woodworm treatment and some superficial losses on the preparatory painterly surface.
They are of extraordinary beauty with the original nails still attaching the six legs to the central body.
They have been electrified but can easily be turned back to candle use…
Measurements: 57 cm in height including the electrical fitting; 46 cm for the candlestick alone.
We recommend a half-moon abat-jour-
