About the Item

An exquisite antique porcelain candelabra by the Meissen Porcelain Manufactory, one of the most important and influential porcelain producers in the world. Meissen, founded in 1710 in Saxony, was Europe’s first hard-paste porcelain manufactory and remains synonymous with exceptional craftsmanship, artistic innovation, and royal patronage. This highly decorative piece dates to the 19th century and reflects the Rococo Revival style, inspired by 18th-century Meissen masterpieces. The candelabra features a finely modelled figural centerpiece, surrounded by elaborately sculpted floral branches, scrollwork, and multiple candle arms. Every element is hand-painted in vibrant polychrome enamels with delicate detailing and elegant form. The composition, movement, and richness of decoration are characteristic of Meissen’s ornamental production, created for grand interiors and representative display. Such figural candelabras were intended as luxury centrepieces for dining tables, sideboards, or mantelpieces, combining sculpture and functional design. A superb example of Meissen artistry, ideal for collectors of fine European porcelain, decorative arts, or historic interior accents. This piece embodies the refinement, technical mastery, and enduring prestige for which Meissen porcelain has been admired for over three centuries.
