pair of openwork gilded brass candlesticks from the 19th century

A charming pair of gilded brass candlesticks with an openwork design of scrolls, hearts, and volutes, resting on a wide circular base. Their rich ornamentation and elegant silhouette evoke the decorative taste of the late 19th century, in the Napoléon III style. These candlesticks are superb decorative elements for a fireplace. Very elegant, a timeless and reliable choice, on a table, a chest of drawers, or a console... There are a few discreet knocks on the base. The candlesticks are in good condition. The patina of the brass is still vibrant but shows signs of verdigris in the openwork areas. Height 22cm. Diameter of the base: 12.5cm. Total weight 1.380kg.
