I hope the photos do this stunning pair some justice, they are certainly more impressive in the flesh. The details are exquisite, these really are a lavish pair ready to add style and elegance to any interior. The figures are hand painted in luxurious colours, gold for the dress, the red pedestal base and the black for the skin tones. The brush work is very intricate, definitely the work of a steady and skilled hand. The details on the carved sections are also very intricate, inluding the sun heads to the base, beaded edges and of course the figures themselves, particulary features like the drape to the dress and their marvellous facial expressions. They are both offered in great shape ready for home display right away and we will ship to anywhere in the world. We bought these from a dealer in Kensington and they are originally from Italy.

Pair Bronze Gregoire Candelabras French Lights Signed

 

You are viewing a gorgeous pair of French female figurines in the form of torcheres or lights – they really remind me of the great Statue of Liberty, the gift from France to the United States. They are a perfect left and right and each maiden holds aloft the light. The casting on this pair is amazing as I hope the photos illustrate, the patina has a lovely dark brown finish.

The piece is signed L Gregoire on the base near the foot (please see close up picture). Jean Louis Gregoire was a famous French sculptor who lived 1840-1890 and these have to be one of his famous works. Each figure holds aloft the frosted crystal glass flames from which the light emits. They come pre-wired so it would be easy to hook these up to a light source.

The features of the figures has been expertely sculpted and these would make for a fine addition to any interiors scheme. Check out details like the sea serpent on the base of one of them, plus their fine features and intricately textured hair. They are both offered in perfect condition ready for home use right away. We bought these from a dealer in Paris whilst on a continental buying trip.
