Paire de candélabres en bronze patiné et doré d'époque Restauration

représentant une femme à l'antique supportant trois lumières, l'amortissement orné d'un oiseau, la base en marbre rouge des Flandes et rouge griotte flanquée de sphinges

The illustration is accurate. Good overall condition despite the inevitable minor scratches and marks due to age and use. The third arm of light is not very visible on the illustration. It is located at the center of stem, below the birds. A small garland is missing around one bird at the top. As visible on the illustration, there is a traces of oxidation around the hand of a female head. This can be cleaned easily. Very nice chasing.
