About the Item
Pair of Fouquet-Gueudet, French 0.950 (higher purity than sterling) silver 4-light candelabra made, circa 1865, richly adorned with stylized natural and floral motifs. They measure 19 1/2'' in height by 13'' from arm to arm, weigh an impressive 184 troy ounces, and bear hallmarks as shown.
Fouquet Gueudet had a gallery at 18 Chaussee d'Antin in Paris, at a strategic location close to the Garnier Opera and the Galeries Lafayette. In fact, photographer Ferdinand Cartier was active in the same building. The Fouquet family had a longstanding heritage as prestigious jewelry makers. In fact, they showed their work at the prestigious World's Fair in 1873 and subsequently won a bronze medal. Their jewelry is present in many museum collections, ranging from the Musee des Arts Decoratifs in Paris and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Some of their silver pieces, which are rare to come onto the market, are also present in museum collections, such as that of the Museum of Art and History in Geneva. They were active in the 19th and early 20th centuries.

Andrews. Terry & Andrews were the largest clock manufacturers in Bristol, with more than 50 employees using 58 tons of brass in the production of about 25,000 clocks in 1849. The company has produced hundreds of different clock models, including Gingerbread, Porcelain, and Crystal Regulator styles. Ansonia clocks were exhibited at the U.S. Centennial exhibition in Philadelphia in 1876.
In 1877 the clock company purchased a factory in New York and moved most of its production there after being spun off from the brass company. Henry J.
