A LARGE PAIR OF REGENCE-STYLE GILT-BRONZE THREE-LIGHT WALL APPLIQUES
LATE 19TH CENTURY
The backplate, in the form of a faceted console, is richly ornamented with finely chased basketweave motifs and pendant coin-like ornaments. At its centre is a mask, evoking a deity, surmounted by a foliate cartouche. The lower section features generous laurel garlands tied with ribbons, flanking the scrolling terminal, which ends in a stylised acanthus leaf with a seed motif.
Three boldly scrolling candle arms extend from the console, adorned with broad, veined acanthus leaves and fluting. They support circular, moulded drip pans accented with gadrooning and surmounted by nozzles with spiral fluting.
Fine quality of chasing and gilding.
Electrified.
