About the Item

Refined French ormolu bronze candlestick, mid 19th century, finely detailed and beautifully cast. The base is formed by three sculpted swans, their long necks rising gracefully to support the candleholder, which is decorated with acanthus leaves. This delicate piece demonstrates the high level of craftsmanship typical of French bronze work of the period. The gilding has developed a warm antique patina, highlighting the elegant details and adding depth to the design. A small but striking decorative object, perfect as a single accent or combined with other ormolu pieces for a refined display.
