This superb pair of candelabra brings together the best of Chinese and French decorative art.

This porcelain body is set on a pierced gilt bronze base and is mounted above with a gilt bronze structure wrought in the French Chinoiserie style. Each candelabrum supports five candle branches, each branch geometrically scrolled and applied with Chinese style motifs, such as dragon-form handles. The quality of the French gilt bronze is magnificent, cast as it is with intricate detailing; it is even more impressive when paired with the fine Chinese porcelain bodies.
