All auctions / Furniture, Design & Mirrors / Candelabrum Gilded in ormolu - Gilt bronze - Triangular base
Elegant neoclassical candelabrum crafted in bronze using the traditional lost-wax casting technique, notable for its refined execution and its extraordinary ormolu gold finish, which gives it a warm glow and a remarkable decorative effect. The piece presents a slender, balanced structure, articulated by a turned baluster-shaped shaft with successive moldings that reveal the influence of classical models. At the top is the cylindrical candlestick holder accompanied by a circular raised-edge dripper plate. It rests on a characteristic stepped triangular base, finished at each vertex with small spherical supports that provide stability and elegance to the whole. The sober geometry of the base, together with the purity of the architectural lines, fully reflects the aesthetic ideals of late 18th-century neoclassicism. The ormolu gilding retains a warm golden sheen that highlights the volumes and details of the work, giving it a distinguished and noble appearance. The harmonious combination of smooth surfaces and turned moldings provides visual rhythm and compositional balance. A representative piece of the cultivated and refined decorative arts of the period, intended for both religious and domestic settings, ideal for integration into collections of decorative arts, antique furniture, or interiors with classical inspiration. Tracked shipping and careful packaging.
