Description from the seller

Pair of elegant Louis XVI-style torchères in gilt bronze
France
Late 19th Century

Torchères cast in two parts (you can see the fine casting drips)
Formerly a column with arcades topped by a finely chiselled finial of acanthus leaves and a beaded edge.
These ornaments repeat on the terrace, creating a very flattering visual effect.

They are in very good condition, with a beautiful patina and are free from any damage or missing parts.
They dismantle into three parts.
Note that the hollow threaded rods have been replaced with newer models due to oxidation.
