French Dessert Set: Candelabrum and "Feuille" Tray in Gilded Bronze

Exquisite French Dessert Set consisting of a candelabrum and "Feuille" tray in Gilded Bronze (c. 1940). An elegant pair of decorative pieces that capture the aesthetic transition between the opulence of classical Rocaille and the organic elegance that preceded Mid-Century Modern. Comprising a three-armed candelabrum, a masterful cast bronze piece with an exceptionally well-preserved golden patina. It stands out for its architecturally designed stem and sinuous arms that evoke stylised plant forms. The base, inspired by Baroque design, features intricate openwork and scroll reliefs that create a masterful play of light and shadow when the candles are lit. On the other hand, the "Vide-Poche" tray in the shape of a leaf. It is a delicately crafted accessory that represents a vine leaf with astonishing realism. The veins are precisely engraved by hand, and the irregular edge elegantly mimics nature. The handle, subtly integrated like the stem of the leaf, showcases the technical quality of French craftsmanship from the era. Candelabrum dimensions: 28 cm high, 26 cm wide, and 12 cm deep. Tray dimensions: 15 cm wide, 14 cm deep, and 2 cm high. This is a magnificent set to add a touch of character, luxury, and elegance to any room in your home. It will be shipped in careful and secure packaging.
