Lot consists of three candlesticks made of gilded bronze of the nineteenth century. Each one of them has a different shape and an individual design, showing the diversity of the taste of the time with respect to this type of objects, so popular. One of them has been electrified and converted into a lamp with a pleated shade.
Bronze candelabras in the 19th century represented much more than a simple source of illumination: they were symbols of luxury, art and social status. Their elaborate design, inspired by styles such as neoclassical and romantic, adorned the salons of the elite, while their brilliance reflected the opulence of those who owned them. In an era of transition to gas and electricity, these chandeliers remained relevant as decorative and functional pieces, establishing themselves as icons of the refined taste and sophistication of the era.
