This pair of porcelain candelabra, crafted in Vienna between 1735 and 1745, exemplify the Rococo style. Each candelabrum features a central column adorned with flowers and leaves, surmounted by a candle holder. A miniature figure, representing a man playing the bagpipes and a woman with a hurdy-gurdy, is situated at the base of each, adding a playful touch to the decorative functionality. The intricate details, including the gold gilding and painted flowers, showcase the high level of craftsmanship during this era.
