About the Item
These candelabra represent 19th century French design at its most playful and inventive, modelled in gilt bronze in the form of highly stylized dolphins. The candelabra each have seven lights set on scrolling branches which include drip pans, mounted onto the scrolling tail of a dolphin which forms the central support. The dolphins' heads are modelled below the support, on rectangular plinths on scrolling feet which have been cast to resemble foliage.

Two Early 19th Century French Empire Gilt Bronze Candelabra
Located in London, GB
These magnificent candelabra were cast entirely of gilt bronze in the French Empire period of the early 19th century. Each candelabrum is formed as a cornucopia of scrolled branches holding four lights with drip pans, set on a single torch-form stem, held aloft by a Classical style figure.
The figures, one male and one female, are shown draped in swathed clothing, with the male figure depicted holding a quill in his other hand, whilst the female figure clutches a delicate bouquet of flowers. The figures stand upon circular bases, set onto ovoid vases which featured fluted details and central bands of laurel leaf motifs. The vases themselves stand on undulating roundels formed of acanthus leaves, which are further set atop square-form plinths.
Classically influenced works were popular during the French Empire period, when the Emperor Napoleon I sought to create a place in history for France alongside the ancient dynasties...
