A Pair of Empire Period Bronze Candlesticks on Sienna Marble Plinths, C 1830

19th century
Description

This very fine pair of early 19th century French candlesticks is ornately modelled in the Empire style. They stand raised on shaped and polished sienna marble plinths, which are bolted from the underside to the three Grecian style lion's paw feet, which raise and support the decorative columns with foliate collars and wreaths throughout their length, and are finally terminated in ornate candle holders. All the fine casting is hand finished with chased detail. Both are in very good condition and finish with a mid brown /green patina.

French, circa 1830

Dealers Notes

Robert Belcher Antiques was established in 1984 and is a high-quality retailer of interesting, rare antiques and decorative objects. After forty years of shop keeping and maintaining beautiful showrooms, which have been regularly open six days a week, Robert and Wendy have now taken a slightly different approach to their business. Having sold their retail premises, the antique business is now fully online. The picture framing service has ceased to operate because of moving online.

You can contact Robert and Wendy by email or telephone to discuss items from their extensive catalogue of attractive pieces and make purchases. Customers can rest assured that the long-established dealership is continuing to run in an exceedingly professional way, selling genuine and high-quality items which are guaranteed to please the most discerning collector, decorator or homeowner.

All items will be personally hand packaged to a high standard. Small items are extensively wrapped using the best materials and are often double boxed. Items are then shipped with DHL or Royal Mail fully insured and often with next day delivery. Larger items would be personally delivered or sent with a specialist antique delivery firm, or for outside the U.K, a professional shipping company.

Please enjoy viewing their collection of rare and interesting pieces and have the assurance that Robert and Wendy will do their utmost to make sure your experience is exceptional, as has been recognised by many customers who have bought with confidence regularly over the years.

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.

Empire style candlesticks, originating in early 19th-century France, are defined by classical Greco-Roman motifs, symmetrical forms, and heavy materials such as patinated bronze, ormolu, and marble bases.

Craftsmen typically utilised cast bronze with dark or gilded patination, frequently mounted on imported marble bases such as Sienna, Rouge Griotte, or Belgian Black marble.

Authentic pieces feature crisp chasing, substantial weight from solid cast bronze, hand-finished neoclassical details like acanthus leaves or paw feet, and period-appropriate threaded assembly rods.

Position a matching pair on a fireplace mantelpiece, console, or dining table to establish formal symmetry and introduce rich historical texture to contemporary or traditional schemes.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft cloth, avoiding harsh chemical polishes that can strip original patination. Clean marble bases using only mild soapy water, drying immediately with a lint-free cloth.
