A Pair of 19th Century Bronze Figurative Double Candlesticks.

This highly decorative pair of mid 19th century bronze double candlesticks is beautifully cast in solid bronze. They have very good detail and are each in the form of a medieval watchman who is modelled wearing a simple hat, robe and leggings with knee high boots. Around his waist, he has a leather belt from which hangs a bag of provisions a drinking flask and a string of game birds for his supper.

The watchman is holding a decorative candle sconce in each hand which represents the lanterns that he would have been carrying. Each figure is left and right handed and raised onto an oval moulded bronze plinth which displays these interesting candlesticks to great advantage. They are both in very good condition with a green/brown patina.

French, circa 1860

Height 25cm x width 14cm x depth 12cm

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.

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.
