French Louis XVI Style Gilt & Patinated Bronze Putti Candelabra, 19th Century | Pair | Marble & Bronze
A pair of exquisitely romantic French Louis XVI–style three-light candelabra, dating to the 19th century, and modeled as classically inspired putti lifting foliate branches overhead in a graceful, balletic pose. Each branch terminates in a rose-form bobeche, an unmistakable nod to French neoclassical elegance and refined decorative arts.
Cast in richly patinated and gilt bronze, the figures stand atop white marble plinths, further elevated on finely detailed bronze feet. The contrast of warm gilt, deep patina, and cool marble creates a striking, collected look—equally at home in a formal dining room, atop a mantel, or flanking a console or buffet.
These are the kinds of pieces that instantly elevate a room: sculptural, architectural, and unapologetically old-world.

Styling Notes
Layer them with antique mirrors, blue-and-white porcelain, or linen-covered books for a collected European look. Add tall tapers for dramatic height, or let them stand alone as sculptural objects—either way, they command attention.
A timeless pair that brings instant gravitas, romance, and history to your home.
