AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Authentic Napoléon III era candelabras in Louis XVI style, three-light, eclectic style
Characteristics and foot/stem style: Louis XVI inspired by 18th-century creations for the royal court
Decoration of the base: truncated pyramidal base with beveled facets, richly chiseled with a garland of hanging pearls, festooned drapery, and an oval central medallion; finish is a background with a granular matte look typical of the period to enhance the shine of the polished reliefs
Origin and manufacturing technique: country of origin France; characteristics of the artistic workshops and Parisian bronze founders from the second half of the 19th century
Genuine antique art bronze casting in a copper-based alloy; this noble alloy reveals splendid rosé and warm reflections
Handcrafted, traditional sand-casting process; the hollow interior of the base retains its casting grains and pouring balls—precious witnesses to the 19th-century authenticity
Period assembly
Very beautiful patina
