Description from the seller
Stunning pair of candlesticks from the Restoration / Louis-Philippe period
Solid brass
1830s/1840s
France
Well preserved their original bobeches
Very fine engraving with guilloché ribbon motifs, called “rope-style” or twisted, on the base and lower shaft
Objects of great quality:
The round bases are removable and separate from the central shaft by a metal screw-thread system
The reverse side of the bases shows the regular circular grooves typical of a period work done on the lathe

Total weight: 1 kg
In very good used condition:
No missing elements, no cracks or dents. The bases’ screw threads operate perfectly
Very attractive original antique patina that gives superb definition to the engravings
They were deliberately left “in their natural state” to preserve their authenticity
(The inside of the cups and bobeches has simply been thoroughly cleaned of old wax residues)
Noting some traces of oxidation on their internal parts
