Description

The seven-branch candelabra in this pair are fine examples of the Louis XVI style. Each candelabrum features a tripartite malachite base, which supports the springing of four ormolu scrolling foliate brackets. The brackets support the richly adorned lamp-form ormolu body of the candelabrum, which issues six scrolling branches, each holding a single candle holder, and a central stem culminating in a removable ormolu flame finial.
