Candelabrum (one of a pair) 1760 - 1770

This pair of Chelsea porcelain candelabra, dating from 1760-1770, are exquisite examples of 18th-century Rococo style. The intricate design features two figures, likely a couple, seated amidst a flowering tree with a dog at their feet, all set on a lavishly decorated base. The porcelain is painted with vibrant colors and gilded accents, creating a sense of elegance and refinement. The candelabra were produced by the Chelsea Porcelain Manufactory, a renowned English porcelain factory known for its high-quality and innovative designs. The candelabra are now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, where they continue to fascinate and inspire visitors.
