These two wall lights have been designed in the French Empire style. Each takes the form of a five-light gilt bronze candelabrum, which is held aloft by a winged patinated bronze figure.
The candelabra consist of five arms, one of which extends directly upwards from a centre point, while the other four curve outwards. The central arm is cone-shaped, and is decorated around its top with palmettes. The other four arms are ornamented with scrolling foliage, and curve out- and upwards to terminate in wide, leafy drip-pans, simple capitals and candle tubes.
Each candelabrum is carried by a classically-inspired patinated bronze cherub. Each figure wears a leafy gilt bronze skirt, with a stylised foliate tip.
