Additional Information: A decorative pair of French Empire-style giltwood two-light candelabra inspired by the grand neoclassical designs of the Napoleonic period. Richly ornamented with opposing swan-head terminals, scrolling candle arms, classical urn forms, and flame finials, these sculptural candelabra embody the elegant decorative vocabulary associated with French Empire interiors.

Each candelabrum is raised on a square plinth base and finished in aged gilt decoration that highlights the carved details throughout. The dramatic swan motifs, a hallmark of Empire design, create a striking silhouette while the classical urn bodies and flame finials evoke the opulence of early nineteenth-century French decorative arts.

Displaying beautifully on mantels, console tables, sideboards, libraries, or dining rooms, the pair offers exceptional decorative impact and complements French Empire, Neoclassical, Regency, Hollywood Regency, and traditional interiors.
