Description
Two antique Rococo style ormolu candelabra
French, late 19th Century
Height 17cm, width 20cm, depth 15cm

These wonderful ormolu (gilt bronze) candelabra are fashioned in the Rococo style, which first flourished in France in the Louis XV period (1715-1774). The candelabra are characteristically Rococo, being composed of elegant, organic, sinuous and asymmetrical forms.

Each candelabra features two scrolling foliate arms which hold leafy drip-pans and capitals with petalled sconces. These arms spring from stems which are composed of entwined stylised acanthus leaves. The candelabra stand on cartouche-shaped bases, on scrolled feet.
