Description from the seller

Magnificent pair of antique bronze candle holders, richly decorated, in Napoléon III style. These pieces stand out for their elegance and the finesse of their ornaments, with detailed work on floral motifs, scrolls, and gadroons.

The tripodal bases ensure excellent stability and feature a very elaborated relief decoration, typical of the second half of the 19th century. The slender columns are punctuated by carved sections, providing a beautiful visual balance and a remarkable presence.

These candle holders are designed to accommodate candles or tapers with a central point (spikes present).

Characteristics:

* Height: 64 cm
* Width: 19 cm
* Total weight: 9.2 kg (a heavy, high-quality set)
* Material: bronze (likely gilded or patinated)
* Era: 19th century (Napoleon III style)

Condition:
Good overall condition with a beautiful original patina. Normal signs of wear related to age (slight marks and variations in tone), which enhances their authenticity and charm.

Note:
An ideal decorative object for a fireplace, a console, or a classic interior. Very handsome decorative presence.
