Pair of finely chiseled and mercury-gilded bronze candlesticks.


The bases with radiant decoration are surrounded by laurel tori.
The baluster-shaped barrels are decorated with acanthus bases and grooves; they support bobeches in the shape of a Medici vase.
A bouquet with three arms of lights transforms the torches into candelabras.
The central part of the bouquet is decorated with an antique cassolette and topped with a cap in the shape of flames, which serves as a snuffer.


Beautiful state of conservation, high quality of original mercury carving and gilding (wear).
