Description from the seller
Exceptional Set of 3 Large Bronze Torches (39 cm) – Including a Pair of Candle Holders and a Tripod Wick Stand Mounted as a Lamp – 19th Century
Description:
Rare and very beautiful homogeneous decorative bronze ensemble, comprising three large pieces from the 19th century. The identical height of all pieces makes it a particularly prestigious and harmonious furnishing ensemble.
The lot consists of:
1. A pair of large candlesticks/torches (left): Cast bronze with a golden patina, they display a remarkable and uncommon height of 39 cm. They rest on a stepped square base and feature an elegantly turned baluster shaft. Classic large-scale models, kept in their superb original condition for candles (unpierced, not electrified).
2. A large church candlestick (right): Heavy bronze with a dark medal patina, also 39 cm tall. Baroque/High Era influence piece, it rests on a superb triangular base (tripod) ending with three volute feet. It was formerly mounted as a living-room lamp with a sliding fake candle (old-style electrical system with its cable, sold as is).
An impressive and highly decorative ensemble due to its imposing dimensions, ideal for dressing a large fireplace, a maître d'hôtel table, or to integrate into a cabinet of curiosities.
Specifications Condition:
• Material: Genuine bronze (heavy and resonant).
• Era: 19th century.
• Height of each piece: 39 cm (excluding the bulb for the candlestick).
• Condition: Good overall conservation for the three pieces. Magnificent original patina with slight signs of use and natural oxidation that attest to their age and history. No structural defects.
