Figure mounted as a candelabrum (one of a pair) 1725 - 1755

These porcelain candelabra, dating from the mid-18th century, exemplify the intricate craftsmanship of the Saint-Cloud factory. Each piece features a delicate figure seated amidst a blossoming tree adorned with gilded leaves and flowers. The figures, likely inspired by Chinoiserie aesthetics, are posed in dramatic gestures, adding a sense of movement and theatricality to the design. These ornate candelabra, with their intricate details and playful motifs, represent a popular style of decorative art in 18th-century France.
