PAIR OF ROCOCO STYLE SCONCES IN GILT BRONZE
SOLD
Pair of ormolu two-light sconces in the Louis XV style. With their scrolled foliage decorations, these candlesticks are typical of the Rocaille style. The binnacles are treated like flower buds. This 19th-century reinterpretation takes up the ornamentation used under Louis XV. A period of great fantasy, bronze allowed craftsmen to show great originality in compositions that emphasized movement, curves and Rocaille motifs, with their blend of flora and fauna.
They can be electrified on request.
