AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This refined set, composed of four imposing wall sconces, represents an excellent example of eclectic taste from the late 19th century, fully in keeping with the Louis XV style. Made in cast bronze with a warm gilded patina, the lamps feature an asymmetrical scrollwork structure and richly repoussé acanthus leaves that confer a strong sense of movement and dynamism typical of the period. The sinuous arms terminate with repoussé candlestick plates, completed by faux candles that emphasize their classical elegance.

Dimensions approx.: 68x34x21 cm

Overall good condition, with minor material defects due to normal wear over time, slight flaws and marks on the surface. Minor defects to the structure due to normal use, as shown in the photographs. Please observe the photographs carefully as they are an integral part of the description.

Tracked shipping including secure packaging; any duties and customs taxes will be borne by the buyer.
