Delightful pair of candelabra dating to around 1920 and crafted in the opulent Louis XIV style. This style is all about grandeur and elegance, inspired by the Sun King's love of symmetry, rich ornamentation, and regal aesthetics.
These beauties are made from spelter and hardstone, with intricate leaf patterns and elaborate detailing throughout. The five branches are supported by adorable putti—those charming little cherubic figures that evoke innocence and love. They add such a whimsical, storybook-like touch to the design.
Honestly, I think these are much more than just decorative objects; they’re pieces of history that bring character and sophistication to any space. Imagine them on a dining table, a mantelpiece, or even a console—they’re guaranteed to catch the eye and spark a little conversation.

More Information
Style:
Louis XIV, known as the "Sun King," reigned over the kingdom of France from 1643 to 1715. He was one of the most influential monarchs in European history, transforming the monarchy and leaving a lasting legacy in art, culture, and architecture.
Indissociable from the absolute power of Louis XIV, French classicism was invented under his reign to enhance his glory. Described as the ‘grand style’, it imposed simple lines based on a quest for balance and sobriety; it was the antithesis of the Baroque style that prevailed elsewhere in Europe.
