AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
No reserve price!
Two-armed candlestick (Candelabrum) with Cherub, Neo-Rococo / Napoleonic III style (French taste), late 19th century or early 20th century (c. 1890–1920).
Sculptural structure in gilded bronze; central shaft adorned with a putto (cherub) figure. Circular base in ornamental green marble (pattern like Verde Guatemala or Serpentinito).
The base features a circular stone cut with a manual period finish. The central mounting system consists of a simple, flat-head iron screw embedded in the stone, typical of mounting and manufacturing methods from the turn of the century (19th–20th centuries).
Shows natural wear in the gilded patina of the metal consistent with age. Marble base intact with slight time marks on the reverse; oxidation visible on the iron fixing screws.
Seller's Story
Antiques are my great passion; all the items I have on auction were found at antique fairs and antique shops mainly from the Lisbon area, but also from the rest of Portugal, a country with a centuries-old history and many fabulous pieces and objects from this long journey, which I present here for auction. Only pieces of good quality, distinctly original, and obviously beautiful. Guarantee of quality and great care in the shipping of the items. Thank you.
