A PAIR OF EMPIRE ORMOLU AND PATINATED BRONZE SIX-LIGHT CANDELABRA PROBABLY RUSSIAN, EARLY 19TH CENTURY Each with a palmette and foliate clad tapering shaft issuing 'c-scroll' branches with winged lionesses and palmette ornated nozzles surmounted by a smoke shaped finial, on a trianglar base fitted with winged maidens on griffin monopedia, and a circular socle each 24 ? in. (63 cm.) high
The winged maidens decorating the lower part of the shaft are related to mounts of a pair of Russian Empire vases from circa 1800 (Christie's London, 25 November 2008, lot 19), attributed to the celebrated Russian bronzier Friedrich Bergenfeldt (1760-1814) who worked for the Imperial Court at St. Petersburg. The present pair of candelabra may also be compared to similar example sold Christie's, London, 4 December 2008, lot 15.
