Description

This pair of wall lights takes as its inspiration a famous model by Pierre-François Feuchère, a craftsman who operated one of the largest workshops for the production of luxury bronze products during the reign of Louis XVI.

Each light features a backplate wrought to resemble a lyre tied with an abundance of ribbons. The lyre is topped with a mask of Apollo contained within a sunburst and is interwoven with flower sprays and laurel branches. The backplate of each supports five light branches, each wrapped with acanthus leaves and culminating in a fluted nozzle and a foliate berry drip pan.
