Description
A pair of Flambeaux made from gilded bronze and six-flame French crystal from the early 20th century. This pair of girandoles rests on a round base, adorned with six candle holder arms decorated with crystal pendants, and the elements and top that cover them are also made of crystal, providing central support for the flambeaux.
The gilding is original and in perfect condition, complete with all crystals, ideal for decorating entryway furniture like candelabras or for ambient lighting as a night lamp.
In the past, they were electrified, as evidenced by small holes in the colacera plates.
Wonderful antique furniture and accessories can be an excellent idea for furnishing our interiors. Currently, there are more and more enthusiasts of high-quality old products that have a specific character and soul. This is a nod to the history, creation, and design of classic and timeless furniture. There are many different styles in antique furniture, each with its distinctive features.
There are many different styles characterizing antique furniture, but we can distinguish a few key ones. Eclectic furniture belongs to the 19th century, marked by the reigning Biedermeier style. Its variations in the early years of this century include Neo-Gothic, Gothic, Rococo, Louis Philippe, and finally, the English Victorian style. By the end of the century, these styles transitioned into pseudo-styles of Classicism, Renaissance, and Baroque.
Empire-style furniture and accessories date from the late 18th to early 19th century. This style emerged during Napoleon's reign, featuring significant similarities and references to Roman and Greek decorations.
Classicist furniture refers to the Louis XVI style, which also strongly references ancient architecture. Interesting and noteworthy are all antique products in the Rococo and Louis XV styles. Next is Baroque, whose name comes from the Portuguese 'barocco'—which translates to an irregularly developed pearl. These were very representative pieces meant to literally drip with splendor and play a significant role in luxury. Exceptional, selectively used materials were employed to further emphasize the lofty tone of these products.
Today, we can observe how much influence the Baroque style had on today's classic furniture, which is designed with great similarity to the past era. Another significant style is the Renaissance, which flourished in the 15th and 16th centuries and also had a significant impact on the art of furniture making. Renaissance style was quite heavy and massive. Brown stains were used, as well as cornices, strong bases, and reliefs. It can certainly be said that these were quite specific products, but they offered many new possibilities, such as the construction of sideboards or broadly defined chest furniture. Here, there was also an interest in mythology and ancient times, so supports or legs took on animal forms.
Lion paws, eagle heads—these are common sights in the Renaissance style. Currently, many global brands recreate such furniture, taking examples from Italian or French creators. This is an expression of admiration and care for the history of the most beautiful Renaissance antiques. It is important to remember that in each country, furniture making was perceived differently, so each style in a given country had its own distinct character. This is very important, especially when searching for the right luxury antique for your interior.
The most important aspect of prestigious antique furniture is originality. And this is ultimately crucial from the buyer's perspective, as there are many counterfeits on the market. The Luxury Products brand provides a document confirming the product's compliance with the actual description and photo. We have art appraisers, historians, and experts from around the world at your disposal.
