$39,500.00
The large and impressive pair of 19th-century English gilt-bronze candelabras or torchères, having been electrified, were likely originally designed as ornate candle holders.
These torchères, known for their grandeur and elaborate designs, would have been crafted from gilt bronze, showcasing intricate detailing and fine craftsmanship. Originally intended to hold candles, they were likely fashioned in a style that exuded opulence, with ornate motifs and intricate embellishments adorning their frames.
The adaptation to electrification suggests a modernization of these torchères for contemporary use, allowing them to function as lighting fixtures while preserving their exquisite historical design. When illuminated, these electrified torchères would cast a warm and inviting glow, accentuating their ornate details and providing a touch of sophistication and grandeur to their surroundings.
