Executed in a striking "mixed metal" aesthetic, each piece features a beautifully sculpted, dark patinated cherub (putti) figure holding aloft an ornamental three-branch candle tree. The striking contrast between the deep, dark patinated body of the cherub and the golden gilt floral cast details creates an opulent, museum-quality statement perfect for a grand mantle, dining table, or console. Design & Craftsmanship Details The Figures:  Finely detailed, classical cherub/putti figures finished in a deep black/brown bronze patina. The Candle Tree:  Each holds an ornate 3-arm foliate branch system decorated with intricate scrolling, leaf motifs, and central decorative flame finials. Removable Flame Finials:  The center features a removable flame piece, allowing these to safely and easily hold 3 standard taper candles. The Bases:  Substantial, heavy architectural square bases featuring classical swirling fluting, leaf-and-dart borders, and beaded trim details. Specifications & Measurements Quantity:  Complete matching pair (2 candelabras) Total Height (with Flame Finial):  21.75 inches Height (to Candle Cup Rim):  18.25 inches Base Dimensions:  4-3/8" x 4-3/8" square Weight:  Substantial heavy casting at approximately 5 lbs, 10 oz each Condition Report These items are in wonderful antique/vintage condition. The metal shows an incredibly rich, authentic aged patina with light surface wear, minor dust in the casting crevices, and expected coloration variance consistent with genuine age. Structural integrity is completely sound with no cracks, repairs, or broken arms. The undersides show historic casting methods and original mounting. Please review all high-definition gallery photographs carefully to accurately assess the physical details and condition. 🌟 Rarity & Value Context Rarity Status:   Uncommon / Highly Collectible . While single French candlesticks are occasionally seen, finding a  perfectly matched pair  of this significant height (nearly 22 inches) with all original removable flame finials completely intact is rare. Value Multipliers:  Collectors actively look for the "two-tone" look (dark patinated bronze figures contrasted against bright dore/ormolu gold metal accents) because it was heavily popularized during the French Empire and Napoleon III eras. Keep in mind the shipping price also covers handling fees, packaging materials & time, not just postage See our eBay store for 1000’s of our other items. B26b Condition: Used.
