Pair of Louis XV style gilt bronze candelabra

The two gilt bronze (ormolu) candelabra are of identical design. They stand on cartouche-shaped bases which are decorated with stylised leaves and set on scrolled feet. The stems of the candelabra are composed of entwined stylised acanthus leaves. Two foliate scrolled arms spring from each candelabrum stem. These arms support leafy drip-pans and capitals with sconces.
