Description from the seller
Pair of bronze chimera candlesticks – Beautiful antique patina
Beautiful pair of bronze candlesticks depicting chimeras, with a strongly decorative character.
Both pieces are fraternal twins: they share the same model and decoration, but are not perfectly identical. One of the chimeras is slightly larger and wider than the other, which attests to the artesanal and ancient character of the set.
The bronze shows an old patina, with variations in tone and traces of time that contribute fully to the charm and authenticity of these candlesticks.
A particularly decorative ensemble, ideal in an antique, Art Nouveau, Art Deco, or curiosity cabinet decor.
Dimensions:
- Candlestick 1: height 18 cm
- Candlestick 2: height 16.5 cm
- Length: 20 cm
- Width: 10 cm
- Total weight: 1.3 kg
Traces and patina of time visible in the photos.
