AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Splendid pair of wall lamps (appliques) with two lights, made in finely chiseled gilded bronze. These pieces are characterized by a refined design in the full Louis XV / Rococo style, thanks to the rich bronze work depicting primarily scrolls and acanthus leaves, perfect to add a touch of classical and vintage elegance to any environment.
Each applique features the central figure of a putto in a sculpted pose, appearing to support the lamp arms.
The bobeches have a flower-shaped bud form that recalls nature.
The bronze bears an ancient patina darkened by time.
Already prepared for modern use with external wiring and switches.
Ideal for antique enthusiasts, interior designers, or for those who wish to complete a living room or entrance with lighting of great dramatic impact.
H 30 / L 30 / D 15 cm
