AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Lot of four presumed antique candle holders from the 19th century, combining two distinct pairs with elegant silhouettes and finishes characteristic of traditional decorative arts.

This set pairs copper candle holders with a pink patina and double-walled construction with a finely engraved brass pair, in styles evoking the Louis XV and Second Empire periods.

→ First pair: copper-doubled candle holders

• Height: 24 cm
• Base diameter: 10 cm
• Total weight: 980 g
• Balustrade silhouette with classical lines
• Copper-pink patina with traces of an old finish
• Stamps under the bases, including an inscription “DOUBLÉ” and symbols to be precisely identified

→ Second pair: engraved brass candle holders

• Height: 27 cm
• Base diameter: 12.5 cm
• Total weight: 1,588 g
• Slender balustrade shaft
• Engraved decorative motifs featuring ornamental and botanical patterns
• Beautiful old golden patina

→ Overall condition

The four candle holders show signs of age and use: uneven patina, localized oxidation, superficial marks and wear to the finishes.

• First pair: a dent is visible on the edge of one foot.
• Second pair: one as-clip (bobèche) is detached and supplied with the set.

→ Origin and dating

Old-fashioned set, stylistically attributed to the 19th century. Exact geographic origin and manufacturers not established.

A decorative ensemble with character, suitable for a fireplace, a console, a reception table or a collection of antique items.
