Rare pair of two-arm wall lights in finely chiseled and mercury-gilded bronze.


The quiver barrels decorated with asparagus are finished with acanthus caps in the lower parts and with Doric capitals in the upper parts.
They are topped with antique cassolettes with garlands of flowers and pine cone tops.
Two arms of scrolling lights highlighted with acanthus spring from the middle of the barrels.
They support cups with acanthus bases in which bobeches in the shape of Medici vases are positioned.
In the middle, a large garland of laurel leaves pierces the capital and its two ends rest on each side on the scrolls.


Very good state of conservation, the cups and bobeches pierced for electrification.

Exceptional qualities of original carving and mercury gilding.

Parisian work from the transition of the Louis XV and Louis XVI periods around 1770-1775, based on a probable drawing by Jean Charles Delafosse.
