This bronze candelabrum, designed by Louis-Emile Durandelle, is a striking example of late 19th-century craftsmanship. Dating from 1878-1881, the three-tiered candelabrum features intricate ornamentation, showcasing the meticulous detail and artistry characteristic of this period. The candelabrum is designed to hold multiple candles, and its three tiers create a sense of grandeur and elegance. Its tall, slender form and decorative details, such as the floral motifs and swirling patterns, are indicative of the Art Nouveau style, which gained popularity at the turn of the 20th century. This piece would have been a centerpiece in a luxurious home, adding a touch of sophistication and refinement to any setting.
