A Rare Pair of French 19 Century Gilt Bronze Dolphin Candelabra

$40,000.00

These are an exceptionally rare pair of French Charles X stylized standing gilt bronze dolphin six arm candelabra plus a central stem raised on a rectangular gilt bronze malachite veneered bases. The body of the candelabra is embelished by a series of cascading gilt bronze acanthus leaves scrolls and other emblematic elements. The candelabra are very likely French mid 19 century in origin even if the malachite venerred bases are often indicative of Imperial Russian connection.

While the candelabra started life with candles, holes on the rams of candleholders suggest that theywere at some point likely in the early 20 Century electrified.

Dimensions: 31″H X 7.5″W X 6″D
