We have for sale a very decorative and rather stunning pair of unusual Napoleon III 2nd French Empire serpent candlesticks dating to somewhere around 1850-1870.

This very striking pair of french candlesticks each consist of a gilt on a brass console on paw feet over a triform plinth extending to patinated bronze fluted Doric column around which a gilt serpent is entwined. The column in turn extends to a bulbous fluted gilt capital and associated removable gilt sconce.

This pair of decorative candle sticks are 10.2 inches (26cm) high and are in a very good to excellent decorative functional condition, however, close inspection does indicate there is a slight discontinuity in the body of the serpent on one candle stick, see image 5. The candlesticks very nicely compliment a lovely and rather rare pair of Bloor Derby Duke of Devonshire dessert plates we also have in stock.
