Rated Excellent on Trustpilot.

A pair of 20th century zinc chinoiserie candle holders from Europe, each measuring 38 cm high and 14.5 cm square, with incised decoration and hand-painted multicolour details dominated by red oxblood, in good structural condition with minor paint flaws.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Absolutely fantastic pair of candlesticks, of European origin (France?).

Highly decorated with incised decoration and hand-painted in various colors where red 'oxblood' predominates.

Both metal, and both in very good structural condition, only noting some flaws (small) in the paint on both, but nothing special; the good overall condition of the pieces can be confirmed in the photos.

Seller's Story

Antiques are my great passion; all the items I have on auction were found at antique fairs and antique shops mainly from the Lisbon area, but also from the rest of Portugal, a country with a centuries-old history and many fabulous pieces and objects from this long journey, which I present here for auction. Only pieces of good quality, distinctly original, and obviously beautiful. Guarantee of quality and great care in the shipping of the items. Thank you.
