About the Item
Pair of three-light candelabra in chased and gilded bronze, signed F. Barbedienne, Paris. Barbedienne, Paris.
Elegant pair of Empire-style three-light candelabra in finely chased and gilded bronze. Each tapered shaft rests on a circular base decorated with water leaves and gadroons. It is surmounted by a bouquet of stylized flames from which three arms of light escape, formed by swans with outstretched wings, supporting binnacles adorned with palmettes and foliage. The treatment of volumes and the quality of execution bear witness to Barbedienne's expertise. Each piece bears the engraved signature of F. Barbedienne, Paris, attesting to its production by one of the most famous bronze-makers of the 19th century, renowned for the quality of its casting and gilding.
We've fitted them with battery-operated simulated candles, perfectly simulating old-fashioned lighting. This pair has been drilled for electrification and can be re-electrified if more powerful lighting is required.
