19th Century French Furniture & Works of Art Auction

Magnificent pair of antique 19th-century candelabras, in the style of Louis XVI and Directoire. Each piece features a patinated bronze cherub supporting a bouquet of flowers in gilded bronze. The cylindrical shafts are made of veined gray marble and adorned with bronze chains, all resting on a white marble base.

• Condition:
  - Very good: Objects are completely original, NEVER drilled for electricity. Beautiful patina on the gilding.
  - To note: A chip on the white marble base of one of the candelabras (visible in the photo). On this same candelabra, the cherub and the cylindrical shaft rotate but do not detach from the marble base (not problematic, on the contrary, it helps hide the marble chip at the back of the cherub). The chain at the base of the cherub of one of the two lamp holders needs to be reattached.

• Dimensions: Height: 38 and 40 cm

 Magnifique paire de candélabres anciens XIXème siècle, dans le goût des styles Louis XVI et Directoire.
Chaque pièce figure un chérubin en bronze patiné soutenant un bouquet de fleurs en bronze doré. Les fûts cylindriques en marbre gris veiné sont ornés de chaînettes en bronze, le tout reposant sur une base en marbre blanc. 
      
    • État :
      - Très bon point : Objets totalement d'origine, JAMAIS percés pour l'électricité. Belle patine de la dorure.
      - À signaler : Un éclat sur le socle en marbre blanc de l'un des candélabres (visible sur photo). Sur ce même candélabre, l’ensemble chérubin et fût cylindrique tournent mais ne désolidarisent pas de la base en marbre (pas gênant, au contraire, permet de cacher l’éclat de marbre au dos du chérubin). La chainette à la base du chérubin d’un des 2 bougeoirs est à recoller.
      
    • Dimensions : Hauteur : 38 et 40 cm
