About the Item

A pair of Neoclassical candlesticks. The figures are modeled, showcasing flowing robes, recalling the form of Caryatids—sculpted women that supported architectural elements in ancient Greece. The cast bronze figures stand atop geometric limestone bases accented with ornate bronze mounts that highlight their sculptural presence. The design draws clear influence from the French Empire style of the early 19th century, a period when Neoclassicism reached its height across Europe. With its classical motifs and refined execution, the pair may originate from France or Italy, both of which had long traditions in bronze casting and decorative arts. The craftsmanship and patina of the bronze suggest age, leaving open the possibility that they are either early Empire-period examples or finely made later revivals. Together, they stand as a distinguished representation of the enduring appeal of classical forms, suitable for both display and collection. DIMENSIONS: 24"H x 5.5"W x 5.5"D (Base)

Pair of Vintage Bronze Putti Candelabra, by United Wilson

Pair of Vintage Bronze Putti Candelabra, by United Wilson

By United Wilson Co. 1

Located in North Palm Beach, FL

An impressive and exceptionally well-executed pair of vintage multi-light figural candelabras by the celebrated United Wilson Porcelain Factory, produced in the late 20th century as part of the company’s sought-after Ormolu Collection. Inspired by the opulence of 18th-century French decorative arts, these monumental candelabras capture the theatrical elegance of Louis XVI Revival and Belle Époque design while offering the scale, craftsmanship, and visual impact prized by today’s luxury interiors market. Each candelabra is centered by a finely cast putto rendered in a deep chocolate-brown patinated bronze finish, seated dynamically upon an elaborate Rococo Revival base. The figures form a true mirrored pair — a hallmark of superior foundry production — with each cherub balancing an expansive gilt botanical branch that sweeps upward into a dramatic bouquet of open lily blossoms, curling stems, and sculptural buds. Every fully opened lily functions as an individual candleholder, creating a layered canopy of light and movement reminiscent of grand European palace interiors. The contrast between the dark patinated figures and the luminous gilt-metal floral elements creates the distinctive two-tone aesthetic associated with traditional French ormolu. The richly ornamented bases feature scrolling acanthus leaf feet, beaded borders, diaper-pattern latticework, and oversized cartouches, all executed with remarkable casting precision. The detailing throughout — from the putti’s expressive features and musculature to the ribbed petals and winding foliage — reflects the uncompromising craftsmanship that made United Wilson’s luxury revival pieces highly desirable among collectors, designers, and international clientele during the 1990s. Stamped to the underside with the authentic crowned “JUWC 1897...
