The cylindrical bases are made of fine red marble from France, enriched with finely chiseled gilded bronze, creating a fascinating and luxurious contrast. On these bases rest two burnished bronze figures, sculpted in the round with extraordinary details, holding majestic cornucopias. Ten lights branch off from these cornucopias, each enriched with floral elements and bird heads, giving a touch of originality. The combination of gilded and burnished bronze with red marble creates a harmonious and imposing whole, making these candelabras perfect for enriching any room with a touch of opulence and history.
