Description
The candelabra depict stylised female Egyptian figures modeled in parcel gilt bisque porcelain with their arms folded and wearing wrinkled robes. They are shown standing on cylindrical bases with parcel gilt banding. The five scrolling branches of the candelabra are mounted on the heads of the figures, shown emerging from a fruit bowl. The central light has a snake shown wrapped around it. All six lights have circular ormolu drip pans.
