"Pair Of Louis XVI Candlesticks En Gilded Bronze And Red Jasper"
Fine pair of Louis XVI style candlesticks made of gilt bronze and set on red jasper bases.
Rich mounts composed of three winged putti playing the cornett. Extensive ornamentation featuring foliage, pine motifs, and various friezes. The putti are raised on a tripod base ending in doe-hoof feet. The red jasper base is adorned with a gilt beaded frieze.
Work in the taste of Pierre Gouthière.
Fine two-tone gilding and chiseling. Very good original condition.”
