This stunning vintage candelabra combines the grandeur of Louis XVI styling with the romantic drama of Rococo artistry. Featuring a 7-arm candle arrangement rising from an ornate urn form body, the piece is crafted from gilt bronze (ormolu) and richly veined pink marble. The base is adorned with intricate neoclassical motifs, clawed feet, and draped shields, while the urn is flanked by figural cherub handles and further decorated with garlands and laurel accents.
The underside is marked "Brevettato" and "Made in Italy". Standing an impressive 25 inches tall, this decorative showpiece commands attention on mantels, buffets, or formal entryways.
