Paire de petits flambeaux aux Magots en porcelaine de Chine du XVIIIe siècle à monture de bronze doré d'époque Louis XV

à un bras de lumière issu d'une base rocaille ornée de reptiles et centrée d'un Magot (dont une restauré)

Illustration is not completely accurate: porcelain looks too dark blue on the image, whereas it is actually more purple. As stated, one porcelain figure is restored. Porcelain flowers with inevitable chips, some of them perhaps replaced. Otherwise, good condition overall. Very precise and fine chasing with lovely details. A few tarnished areas. A little loose to the ormolu branches. Exquisite items, very attractive.
