About the Item
Antique French pair of candlesticks, beautiful finely chiseled ormolu (solid bronze gilt with fine gold) Louis XVI style pattern. Our model is richly ornamented with pearls and acanthus.
Our candlesticks are a mid 19th century production circa 1850 (Napoleon III period). At that time, bronze makers used to make very sophisticated copies of original 18th century items with a higher quality level (their equipment and techniques were more advanced than during 18th century).
All-purpose format to place on either side of a mantel clock, also very decorative on a chic dinner table, or on a chest of drawers.
Beautiful set to complete a neoclassical decoration.

By Gérard-Jean Galle
Located in GRENOBLE, FR
A fine pair of tall ormolu (mercury gilt bronze) and patinated bronze candelabras, French Restauration production, early 19th century work circa 1815 - 1820.

Pair of Tall Empire silver plate Candelabras by JG Galle - early 19th century
By Gérard-Jean Galle
Located in GRENOBLE, FR
Rare pair of silver plate bronze candelabras, early 19th century production (Empire period).
Beautiful Louis XVI style model, elegant proportions, 2 to 3 lights each (you can turn the center piece over to get a third light).
They are composed of 17 independent parts each (the more there are, the higher the quality).
The bottom part looks exactly like an ormolu pair of candlesticks exhibited at chateau de Fontainebleau, listed in a book dedicated to bronze items that came into the castle under Emperor Napoleon's reign (last picture, the left candlestick). This books testifies that the ormolu pair has probably been delivered there by Claude Galle in 1807.
Our pair is a variant of this pair of candlesticks :
- silver plate instead of gilt bronze
- the candelabra part on top
