Description
Pair of Empire-style bronze candlesticks, French School, 19th century Gilded and patinated bronze. Dimensions: 27 x 11 x 11 cm. A pair of single-arm candelabra in the Empire style, featuring an architectural structure characterised by clean lines and balanced geometric proportions. The cylindrical bodies rise from stepped, square bases decorated with finely engraved borders, whilst the candle holders display classical profiles inspired by models from Greco-Roman antiquity. The composition is notable for its ornamental restraint and the harmony between verticality and volumetric stability. These pieces reflect the Neoclassical taste that spread during the Napoleonic period and its enduring influence on 19th-century European decorative arts, characterised by monumental elegance and the archaeological reinterpretation of classical forms. 27 x 11 cm.
