Candlestick (2) - Spelter - Pair of candlesticks

This pair of candlesticks is crafted in régule with a silvered finish, in a Neo-Renaissance style that evokes the opulence of the Louis XIII era. The silhouette of each piece is defined by a twisted column and a richly ornamented square base, reflecting classic decorative craftsmanship. Each candlestick features detailed construction typical of régule work from the late 19th or early 20th century. The base sits on four voluted feet and is adorned with cartouche and foliage motifs. The stem, or shaft, is rhythmized by a twisted column and knurled elements, ending with a matching finial to hold the candle. The gilded finish gives the whole piece a warm glow, though patinated by time. The overall condition of the pair is good, bearing witness to its history and past use. The structure of each candlestick is solid and intact. The patina that has developed over the years adds character and authenticity to these pieces, highlighting the intricate details of their design without compromising their aesthetic integrity. These candlesticks can serve as a focal point on a mantel, console, or dining room table. Their historic style allows them to fit into a classical interior as well as to bring an eclectic touch to a more contemporary decor.
