A pair of Regency green and gilt-painted torchères Circa 1820

the cushion-moulded circular tops on three double-scrolled supports painted with foliage joined by a circular stretcher on bell shaped feet

There are losses and pitting to the dished section of the tops with a 1cm chip to the border of one. The cushion border of the same one also has some minor losses. There are losses to the decoration generally as visible from the photographs which will need retouching and there are large sections missing from all the feet on one and two feet on another which will need attention and there is a construction crack to the middle tier on one which will need attention. There is a section missing of the frieze on one which will need replacement.
