AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Elegant pair of large gilded bronze Art Nouveau candle holders finely chiselled depicting two young fairies seated in an openwork setting of stylized foliage and flowers.
The tripodal bases richly decorated rest on undulating feet typical of the Art Nouveau aesthetic.

The casting work is particularly refined, with great delicacy in the treatment of faces, hair and leafy motifs.
The overall piece shows a beautiful old patina and retains all its decorative character.
France circa 1900.

Good general condition with slight signs of use and aging compatible with the age; see photos, they are an integral part of the description.
