Taperstick (2) - Earthenware, Spelter

Charming pair of candlesticks from the Restoration period around 1820. They feature an elegant composition combining a cylindrical white ceramic shaft with a rich patinated regulus mount, adorned with foliate motifs. The undulating bases with vegetal decoration, the elaborately turned rings, and the decorated cups give the whole a beautiful Neoclassical silhouette typical of that era. In good condition, they will simply need cleaning, notably the remaining candle wax.
