A pair of Art Nouveau silver candelabra

Cast in one piece, chased, engraved and polished five-flame table candelabra decorated with vine leaves and acanthus. The four foliate arms surround a raised central nozzle. With a pierced foot. H ca. 49 cm, weight 5,430 g.
Attributed to France, circa 1900.

The two impressive elegant table candlesticks are made of solid silver. The historical model of Juste-Aurèle Meissonier is still recognizable in the design of the base and proportions. Cast in a mold that does not require assembly, it emphasizes the flowing lines of the Art Nouveau style.
