Pair of XlX th Empire candlesticks in polychrome metal

Sublime pair of antique 19th century empire style candlesticks in orange-red and gold polychrome metal numbered a514. Magnificent base on 4 turned legs decorated with friezes and knots with a devil's head mask on each side, elegant stem with decorated column, superb art nouveau style branches with plant and flower decoration, elegant beaded bobèches accompanied by a part removable in the shape of a flame on the central branch. Note that one of the bobeches in this same central part is different depending on the candlestick, certainly due to an old restoration. Also note two holes on the back of one of the candlesticks, probably with the idea of wanting to pass a small cable through it. Does not interfere because the primary function of this pair is to be on a fireplace or on a piece of furniture, so we do not see this rear side. This is an incredible and unique pair of candelabras that will add a touch of grandeur and luxury to any room and interior. ❖ dimensions: height 39 cm X arm to arm length 20.5 cm X base width 7 cm ❖ in beautiful old condition, a small, slightly fragile branch + see the description above as well as the photos.
