Grand Tour. 19th Century Gilt Bronze Candlestick with Caryatid Biscuit Shaft

19th century
Description

34 cm High.

Notes: Caryatid. A female semi-nude figure used as a pillar to support the entablature of a Greek or Greek style building.

Biscuit porcelain, or bisque is unglazed, a white porcelain with a matte appearance and texture to the touch. It has been widely used in European pottery, mainly for sculptural and decorative objects that are not tableware and so do not need a glaze for protection.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

A Neoclassical decorative lighting item inspired by classical antiquity, incorporating a sculpted female figure known as a caryatid to support the upper candle socket.

Craftsmen often combined cast gilt bronze, also known as ormolu, for the sockets and bases with unglazed biscuit porcelain or Parian marble for the sculpted figures.

Authentic pieces display finely hand-chased surface work on the metal elements, sharp detail on the unglazed ceramic figure, and signs of natural oxidisation on underlying cast brass or bronze components.

Display the object on a mantelpiece, marble sideboard top, or alongside contemporary line drawings to introduce a structured classical architectural accent to a modern room.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft-bristled brush. Avoid liquid cleaning agents or water on unglazed biscuit porcelain, and clean gilded bronze using only a dry microfibre cloth to protect the original mercury gilding.
