The urns taper elegantly to a circular socle and square plinth base, trimmed with ormolu mouldings for a refined architectural finish
Above, the gilt bronze branches rise in sweeping, asymmetrical foliate scrolls, issuing three candle arms with tulip-form sconces and drip pans. The scrolling arms intertwine in a dynamic, ribbon-like movement, richly chased with acanthus leaves and naturalistic detailing, creating a sense of fluidity and balance
The contrast between the crisp white marble and the warm gilded bronze gives the pair a strong neoclassical presence, while the exuberant scrolling branches hint at late 19th century French revival craftsmanship
A striking and sculptural pair, ideal for a mantelpiece, console table, or flanking a mirror in a classical interior
